I liked the scene in which they saw the bus ad for men's underwear. Both Tyler and the narrator comment negatively on it. The narrator hates the unrealistic body standards for men but at the same time chases and wants those standards as Tyler is merely a projection of what he wants to be. It's interesting how consciously he rejects those standards yet subconsciously he still desires them.

I don't think the love for Tyler Durden is solely related to his hyper-masculine and cultish tendencies. For a minority that may be true, but for me, it feels similar to the reactions to other characters like Joker or Patrick Bateman: they aren't loved because of their actions, they're loved in spite of them - they're loved because of what they represent. So much of masculine identity is about what we provide others and how much of a utility we are to the outside world. In my opinion, these "literally me" characters are so attractive to male audiences because they refuse to compromise for others and instead learn to serve themselves. What makes films like Taxi Driver, Drive or Joker so intoxicating is that it's about male liberation: the whole 'Sigma male' meme. Male characters transcend their own limiting situations/societies and become something more, become their own myths. In a way, it's the same thing as we saw with Jordan Peterson: people (mostly men) didn't admire him because he was politically savvy or contrarian, he was admired because of his belief that there was something more (ancient) for the male character to want to aspire to. In sum, I don't think guys came out of Fight Club feeling like they actually wanted to start their own fight clubs: I feel they came out of Fight Club wanting to own their change. Great video! I'm happy I stumbled upon it in my recommended - keep up the good work!

On my first watch, I rationalized everything Tyler did. I immediately related to the narrator, and when Tyler came and completely changed his life, I was rooting for him because he put the narrator in a situation I wished I was in. When I walked out of the theater I wanted my own Tyler. On later rewatches I understood the whole point, but before that I didn't. The interesting thing is that before watching it I despised people like Andrew Tate and didn't understand their appeal at all, but Tyler spoke to me the same way Tate did to all those other men.

This movie is great cause it speaks about different topics and themes with a single message. It can also be interpreted as a movie about nihilism. It's ironic how in the search for freedom from society and controlling forces, the narrator and cultists get caught up in this mission that they as a group become controlled by the idea of rebellion and nihilism. The movie ends the same way it starts, with destruction, being mental or physical. Edit: so for me the message is this one: Freedom from society and consumerism shouldn't include destroying the world as we know it, that can't be the answer.

I appreciate this video and the perspective, I understand you’re trying to also bring perspective to people who might not be noticing a very important part of the story, but you have to understand that Tyler‘s anarchist ways may have been completely blown out of proportion by the end… but you cannot forget that there is no creation without destruction and in order for the narrator to even figure that out he had to create a monster and learn to control it. which is why by the end of the movie he became a perfect balance between the narrator and Tyler. Also Marla isn’t as innocent as you might have described. She was only consistently interested because of the balancing act of cold heartedness and affection which only points more towards the direction of the balance that is required of having a monster inside of you but also being able to control it. Remember, Marla describe the relationship to the t and she still stayed yes , it is because she cared but it’s also because of the peaked interest that Tyler has sparked. Demonstrating that you cannot be the nice guy and the provider you must have balance.

Part of this is true. Part of the video by moon is also true. In my opinion loneliness is fixed through genuine connections. However it is also fixed with a genuine connection with your real self aka masculinity . He killed Tyler to become his real self ( getting freedom by being free from him) and becoming more of a man to be able to enjoy the connection with her. Although keep in mind she fell in love with him while he was Tyler. So now that he essentially became his own version of Tyler he can now enjoy real connections. What I took from it is to find yourself through your own connection as that is what masculinity really is. Once found you will enjoy more deeper connections

In the end, Tyler has become everything he despises about capitalism. He's a cult leader, setting unrealistic standards for its members and blaming scapegoats for his problems and insecurities. I mean, fight club LITERALLY becomes a franchise. By killing him, the narrator kills of his toxic masculinity. Notice also how he sends his goons away at the end, with only Marla staying, showing there is no real connection between him and Fight Club.

What's way more likely is that he has had testicular cancer and has either had his balls removed already or is going to and is feeling anxious, and the doctor is prescribing him something for that anxiety, the Xanax that we see in Marla's hotel room, and advising him to go to a support group for the thing that he needs support with But since he's dissociating, he starts growing to tons of different support groups

I disagree with the title, but I agree with a lot of points made in the video. Men relate to Tyler in that they feel a lack of fulfillment in this post-modern capitalist consumerism hell-hole. People want to return to something primal, something real. Fight club is just that, emasculated men go to feel something. To become a real man. When someone says a character is relatable, that doesn't mean they're idolizing them. Tyler is relatable in the sense he's unfulfilled and dissatisfied with the society he lives in. People don't idolize anything about him, especially not after he becomes a cult leader and terrorist on accident.

The whole story in Fight Club is a metaphor for Chuck Palanyuk's (writer of the novel) latent homosexuality. Tyler is the tough straight dude who he wants to be (with), and Marla is the neurotic woman he identifies with unwillingly. In the end, when he 'gets together' with Marla, it's a metaphor that he finally overcome the stigma of being gay and accepted himself. This is underlined by the short frame of a penis in this scene.

Well, imo the insertion clip means the Tyler Durden persona secretly edited the film Fight Club, just as he did as a theatre worker in the film, and it could mean the narrator has reached heterosexual maturity and can finally have relationships with girls like Marla if he can "kill off" or at least control the alpha Tyler Durden personality within himself, a personality split that help free him from his empty beta consumerist existence in the first place. That said, we all can see what we wanna see in Fight Club and have different interpretations of it.

Two more Things to add: First, The death of Bob. Even after fight club was built, Bob is still a friend for a narrator. A narrator really cared about him, For example, the "space monkeyt test scene". The film editted it, but I can imagine that A narrator would say something like this : "Hey, Bob, Don`t go. Listen me. This is just a, what to say, special homework. When Tyler mocked you, Tyler didn`t really mean it. This is just another homework to endure. If you just wait here in 3 days, You could be a special member. Don`t leave. Okay?" But when Bob died, Bob didn`t become the one who is missed and mourned by his friends, like a real person. He became a symbol, a *brand* for dead people of project mayhem. A BRAND JUST LIKE CONSUMERISM. It was technically done by other members, and a narrator was mad at them. "Technically" A narrator and Tyler is a a same person, so Bob would be a special person to him too, right? but NO. Tyler durden DOSEN`T care about him. Tyler just used Bob as an asset for HIS project. Just like attempts to kill Marla, He just used his friend for his sake. Secondly, Tyler durden(and a narrator) is a lucky guy in history. He is in "Generation X", who was born lucky to feel emptiness in age 30. As he said, The great war is not there for 90s, The great depression is not there for 90s. Instead, We see the different world now. 9.11(2001) happend after 2 years of this movie(1999), Iraq war(2003) began after 4 years.The bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers(2008) is after 9 years. Everyone looks carefully at Ukrine even now. We don`t feel "emptiness", We feel "desperation" for surviving. Yes, Consumerism is still here, but many of us ALREADY don`t have a lot of things to lose. His message, at least for me and for now, is a hollow howling, outdated one.

It's at Project Mayhem his lessons become another trap. The cult he sets up. These are when you'd find yourself bound up into just another insane, impossible set of rules.

Fight Club is all about connecting with people the author said so himself. Consumerism is only a symptom of a greater problem. We isolate ourselves from other people and can no longer connect. Ultimately Tyler was the narrator's desperate urge to connect with someone or something which is why the support groups caused Tyler to regress. Even though the narrator wasn't dying, he was still connecting and thus didn't need Tyler.

Tyler and these other ¨literally me¨ characters represent this fantastical rebelion many of us would genuinely subscribe to...hell the 21st century just started who knows? maybe we will subscribe to some manner of rebelion one day...so that we may one day be happy and then guarantee this happiness to whatever desandants of ours we have.

I see it mainly as a dark comedy surrounding an unusual midlife crisis at a younger than usual age. Gen Z has a tendency to like to recontextualize everything as a “crisis of masculinity” when that’s not what the book or film are about. Millennials, about 10-15 years earlier we’re more on the mark when they were recontextualizing it as a failure of neoliberal promises, which is pretty close to the failure of the multitude of Gen X people who grew up with yuppie aspirations, and then rebelled when it didn’t pan out. It wasn’t just the theme of Fight Club, but the theme of early 1990s culture in general.

This was an incorrect interpretation of the movie. The capitalism isn't really what he is rebelling against so much as that he doesn't feel any real sense of purpose. The capitalism wasn't replaced by the end of the movie, he just realised that if you are going to do something about it, get off your butt and achieve it. At the end of the movie, he does just that, gets rid of the corrupt corporations by blowing up the buildings (just like Neo beating up the Agent Smith character once he gains powers) and getting the girl. In anarchy there IS no leader. We are ALL the leader and at the end of the movie he wasn't really following Brad Pitt's character. He was always that person but was too scared to act on it. Does that make sense. IT's not a movie against capitalism it's a movie about people who say they have a problem with something but don't want to act on it and get off their butt to do it. Eg you meet a friend at a comic convention and he whines and complains that comics are not what they used to be. You say to him: "But you don't have to buy them, why not fix them and become a comic book writer and artist?" He responds: "You are right I have the power to NOT buy crap and actually create something good instead of whining about things" And you say, "so why haven't you done it yet instead of complaining?" And he will respond by saying: "I never thought I had that in me to do it" And you say: "That is why you fail. Exactly what Yoda says to Luke in Star Wars when he complained he can't lift the X-wing out of the swamp." The movie isn't saying capitalism is evil but why haven't you lazy kids fixed what you perceive is the problem? The movie is saying: "Why play the victim when you can be the change?" So by the end of the movie he gets his wish and fascists are taught a lesson not to mess with the enslaved people. Star Wars and Fight Club and the Matrix are all telling the same story: people who whine but don't do things are letting the evil guy get away with it. If you don't stop evil then you lose your right to complain about it because you are a part of it when you stay still and just watch it happen. It's not about sigma males. We are all descendants of people that fought and died in wars to fight for freedom. We are their hope so if a mean dictator comes along to oppress us, it means you have no choice but to fight for your belief. To prove it's not about capitalism being evil there is a scene where an asian kid wanted to do something better than what he is doing now but didn't seem motivated to pursue the goal until pushed. The blue pill man is all about following things. This kid was just following others dream and ambition, not doing what HE wanted. And so the movie is not about choosing to rebel for the sake of rebelling, but for a man to just stop thinking about doing something and instead just do it. It could be considered anarchist movie but really its about finding your purpose and not apologising to older generations for why you choose to go down the path you choose. One day those old folks will die and its just you. No more bosses or guides or elders to blame the state of the world on. Just you and what you want to do. If you just sit there, of course you won't get the girl. The girl is merely the motivation for why you do stuff. It's not actually the aim of your life. The aim is finding your purpose and letting the girl come with you on the ride. If you had no purpose, the girl has no incentive to ride with you on your journey. Sigma males don't care about what other people think and don't need to be fixed. They are already rebellious in the sense that they achieve their goal and have social proof. This movie is about Omega males deciding not to take orders from corporate boss and just leave the nest and fly to a new place set up their own nest and have a girl to come with you on the journey. So if anything the Brad Pitt character is merely a potential version of yourself IF you decide to act on your will and fight for your freedom. The saying goes that "freedom isn't free. You have to fight for it!" The reason immigrants want to come to the west is to obtain freedom. But unless you learn history of how the freedom was obtained (sacrifice of blood, the need for brave people to do bold things and make tough decision) you cannot be as cool as your ancestors that were a lot tougher than the current generation of men who lost their sense of purpose working in a cramped office like the guy in Office Space slaving away for a baby boomer middle manager who treats them like crap. LOL That's humiliating! So no it's not 'capitalism is evil', (corporatism is - that is when you have powerful corporations with monopoly power and the state encourages and approves of it) it's more a case of the main character is an Omega male and he finally obtained his balls when he went through with his plan. Not all terrorism is bad. It's bad for the elites who are the establishment but to the little guy terrorism is considered "freedom fighting" just as america could be thought of as terrorist for rebelling against the english kings to fight for independence. Today American's celebrate their victory over the poms for gaining freedom with might and power. Without balls you get no freedom, no girl, and just stay at home watching anime and playing games. It's not a sigma male story. It's a Omega male regaining his courage to fight for what he perceives is freedom from the evil. In this case it's the annoying boss and soul-destroying lifestyle. But he realises he can do something about it and this prevents being bullied. Every single comic book character in comics is out to DO something to fight evil. Batman has the Joker, Superman has Darkseid, The X-men have to fight rogue mutants etc This guy's battle is the internal struggle with his demon of fear. He fears he can't live up to past generations which actually feel proud with what they achieved. If you were a nerd in school that got bullied your whole life and then took up martial arts like the kids in Cobra Kai, friends around you will notice a change in you. That is what this movie is about. You got to fight even if you don't like it. So many of the characters in movies start out tough and then the focus of the movie is the action. In this movie, it's like the "origin story" of how to get tough on evil by punching the boss in the face and hurting the system that rewards evil. Greed is a sin. So is robbery. It's not about right or wrong so much as "Why haven't you achieved anything if you think the world sucks?" The answer is because you are reacting to it not removing the source of the power. In Star Wars the source of the power was the Sith Lord manipulating all the senate into policies that go counter to peace-preserving community. It's always a push for more weapons, more brute force, more killing. The people get corrupted and the only good guy is the guy that can see the manipulation and do something about it. (Obi-wan is the focus here because he trusts in the principles of the Jedi despite agreeing with anakin that perhaps the council is using him as spy for its own agenda - but that is not an excuse to go rogue, rather a reason to fix the problem of corruption in jedi and politicians. When Obi-wan fight anakin it is not really anakin he is fighting but his sinful choice to work with the Sith Lord. It's a battle between righteous princple vs brainwashed kid. If the Jedi council were peacekeepers then they should not have agreed to go to war for a political agenda and realised that it's wrong to use brute force. They failed in this one part and Anakin was destined to bring the balance back to the middle again. (after he defeates the Sith in episode 6 by throwing him down the shaft, which only happened AFTER the jedi are almost extinct and taught their lesson not to work with corrupt politicians who are pro-war) Fight Club story is the same: The Omega male feels something is wrong, so has to bring the balance back. Too much greed leads to suffering, too much laziness leads to loss of purpose (when a capitalist succeeds he doesn't need as many workers once business can operate efficiently and cheaply enough to rake in big profits meaning it is inevitable that workers have to be laid off and the worker must build his own nest without a big boss telling him what to do. But when workers lose their job and status, some of them get depressed and lose purpose. Omega males are the least likely to rebel. The movie shows us that these guys are much more dangerous to the elite than a typical worker since they are intelligent enough to see the problem for what it is. Not simply react to the pain, but fix the problem. When the problem is fixed, it means more for the oppressed and less for the oppressor. So the oppressor calls anything they dn't approve of a "terrorist attack" not a freedom fighter bringing the balance back. (remember what Mr Miyagi said in Karate Kid movies about "Balance not just being about Karate")

Its not about masculinity, its about being human in society, it applies to women also. But I get it “masculinity” gets views. Because consumerism makes you want to be the man.

I don't think you understand. He is literally me tho. I cannot and will not stress this enough. I am an anarchist megalomaniac with insomnia and I will not be told otherwise. I am more awake than ever but more importantly, I don't adhere to societal norms and values plus my dad stepped out of my life too. I will shape my own destiny and reject redemption since we are gods unwanted children. I am something more than an idea. I seek to not only free myself but to also free others from the shackles of tyranny. I am free in all the ways others are not. We are the all singing all dancing crap of this world. I am jack's raging bile duct.

The villainizing of masculinity has done more damage to society than the most extreme toxic masculinity ever did in all of human history. Having a father in the home is the single most determining factor for women's emotional development. A two parent home is the most significant metric in determining a person's general success, both in business and mental health. This is not to say there is anything wrong with single parent upbringings, but it is a disadvantage. Boys without male role models are far more likely to end up in prison, and far less likely to have successful marriages. Girls without a father in the home are far less likely to find fulfillment in their relationships, success in business, and ten times more likely to suffer from mental illness. These are statistical generalizations, not guaranteed outcomes, but have been consistent observable metrics throughout all cultures and times in human history. The worst biological fathers who are present, yield better, more consistent, positive results in the lives of their children than even the best absentee fathers. Good news is; these results do not hinge on the father/male role model being a biological relation, but they DO require presence and involvement.

I really don't understand this whole Sigma and Gigachad community, their idol is Patrick Bateman who literally is everything one with a person, Patrick Bateman, has no unique personality and is a coward who tries to fit in and is too scared to express himself, and also an madman who has killed like 40 people.

Instead of starting a fight club the narrator should have just embraced spirituality which is the perfect mix of masculinity and feminity. Problem solved. Anything taken to extreme will cause destruction. Instead of Tyler Durden, Neville Goddard should be our hero.

Okay, this is a pretty good video, but the fact that this guy puts deodorant or all things as an example of things we "don't need", and anime as an example of consumerism when you can just like anime normally without becoming a full on figurine collector really gives the impression this guy's stinky.

In the core, Sigma just like Alpha but introvert and more bias on moral & critical thinker, Im looking for Sigma Male youtube to understand myself more... I don't know how Alpha Male and Sigma male once it's a nature type become a figure that everyone must follow, it's destroying it's audiences...
