Sorry if this is out of place but I have some stuff to say and I wasn't sure where to say it. Fight club is not a satire. It is not primarily a critique on toxic masculinity. It is first a detailed explanation of the rage that fills the average man in America. To say that the main point is that fight club and project mayhem are bad is ignorant. Nobody watches fight club and thinks that they should go and blow up some buildings, but dudes getting together and punching each other in the face to let out anger is not barbaric, and it probably prevents countless violent crimes daily. There is also value in getting hit in the face, and "letting go." Does this mean that Tyler's plan and philosophy are correct? obviously not... but people who whine about everyone misunderstanding fight club ironically fail to understand the actual reason why people choose to focus on the rage against society aspect of the movie. It's not because we think Tyler Durden is the solution to all our problems. I like tyler durden in the same way i like loki, walter white, jack sparrow
