Have you ever thought about how much most guys love this movie? This guy I’m boning pointed something out to me I hadn’t thought about.
1.Fight Club the book has Marla Singer in it far more than the movie this means that it is even more clear that she is a symbol of anti consumerism. She can survive just fine without the narrator. This makes his anti consumerism mission even more fragile because he isn’t saving anyone he is destroying himself and everyone including the people he cares about.
Makes you think of the creepy incel guys like the murderer of Bianca Devin.
2.In the book he tries to save her by making her go away. It is a self awareness of the Id to Ego complex Tyler Durden represents. By recognizing the lack of empathy and love he in many ways drives Marla away to the point of pushing her away and paying her to go away. You always hear that if you love them let them go. Well girls get used to losing before guys do in so many ways its not even funny. This helps girls become more creative and adaptable.
3.Tyler isn’t real. No matter how hard guys try to be some imagined definition of being a man Tyler is as good as anything you see in men websites telling them to act a way to be more manly but always selling them a product. Guys are not very good at being consumers so they buy into consumerism and are coopted by a capitalist framework.

The guy I am seeing says that yes he might be easy on the eyes and may have clawed himself out of the working class but he never did it because he was trying to destroy society. He says the things that suck about society are a system we have always been in. The way to be a real man is not to be reckless. To take most things with a grain of salt but to be gracious with people because most are facing similar problems. Especially working class men and women. He said that the system tries to divide and commodify everyone because then people who are wealthy dont have to worry about any real trouble from poorer people. But if Women and men recognize this struggle they can enlighten themselves beyond the narrative of the world they have always known. This is why misogyny is also a commodity and selfish dimwitted losers like that murdered do what they do. They plan out their validation. Once they know they will be hero's to other men they act like cold blooded killers. They are manufactured and radicalized by capitalism. Its quiet profound. Crazy thing is he is a banker.

I have been thinking recently I'd love to have a thread where we could post documentaries. I watch a lot especially when doing stuff around the house so I can post a couple of favourites I recommend here in the OP, more in the comments if anyone is interested, and would love to find some new ones!

Interview with a Cannibal: Guy who met up with another guy online who consented to being murdered and eaten. Morbid but interesting watch. German, so subtitled.

Polygamy Doc: One Man, Six Wives, Twenty something kids. A guy in utah who keeps very very young wives and at the time of filming, being 40 ish, was trying to woo a 16 year old kid. (not a spoiler but he subsequently went to jail and a few wives left him, some stayed. Very interesting to watch and to look into after)

A historical one for variety: The truth about hygiene etc in Versailles. Stumbled across this and left it on while doing my makeup and really liked it! Sent me down a nice historical rabbithole, not of actual history per se but of little tidbits like this about daily life and lesser known shit (literally)

Ok back to morbid. If you haven't seen this already, it's insane, a little girl, "child of rage". Another one interesting to look into what happened afterwards (she was later put through attachment therapy)

Post any image you want. Bonus points for pictures that are rare, interesting, and/or have gone out of circulation over time.
Post the most obscure and weird ones you have

Thought this would be nice to have since podcasts are huge right now. Every Tom, Dick and Harry now thinks the world can't be deprived of their opinions and starts a podcast.

Discuss:
>Podcasts you like
>Podcasts you hate
>Podcast/Host drama
>Crazy Podcast Fandoms

There is a thread that already exists for one of the biggest podcast cows, Mike Boudet, but it's pretty dead.

Another totally dead thread that seems to be only for recommending podcasts.
