Why Fight Club never truly grew and developed as a movement?

That, why it never truly expanded to modern society? Even now given that we lived in a more emasculated world?

How do you know that it hasn't and you simply haven't been invited to join?

Looks like someone didnt get fight club

joke was own made

>fight club

edgy high school senior starter kit

You don't have to get around and the beat the fuck out of each other to be masculine. Of course, the main character did that to cope, but it wasn't the most important part of the movie. Watch it again my black user.

Don't talk about fight club outside of fight club

Don't talk about Sup Forums outside of Sup Forums

simple

because the world is short on leaders

What is MMA

>Why Fight Club never truly grew and developed as a movement?

Probably because it's a plot device invented by an author as the premise for a book.

...

>he didnt get in

kek fucking pleb

We tried this in highschool behind the gym but some black kid dropped a rock another black kid's head and they fixed the fence so we couldn't go back there anymore.

We are fight club

/thread

it would cripple most people's manufactured identities to discover they cannot fight

so they need a movie to tell them they could, when the time comes for them to resist and be a badass, they'll have it inside of them

actually the nerdiest guy, scrawny, he's the craziest, he started it all

and got the girl

we are the fight club now

Perhaps people realized they needed their brain to make money and decided getting concussions on a regular basis wasn't a wise idea.

lol

Because the members of fight club basically had abandoned traditional living to become extremists that would be labeled terrorists or criminals if they lost. Basically they said it is ok if they die for the cause.

Something that is very very rare in our current society because even the most shitty living conditions is much better then most of the world.

There ain't no fight clubs here, an user that we called the Tyler poster tried to amass some population to create one but everyone laughed and he vanished.

Also I'm aware of some clubs in England, Trumpland, Brazil and even Russia but they're all from the 00's and they died out soon after..

You're confusing Fight Club with Project Mayhem

>why didn't fight club grow and develop into project mayhem

Because of the fucking reasons above

Sup Forums alone rivals secret societies that call the shots.

Sup Forums has many professional people just like the secret societies.

Sup Forums is a serious threat just like secret societies, but Sup Forums and the secret societies are at war with each other.

We are an example of fight club, we are world wide and we have a chance to destroy secret societies.

The only thing left to do is mobilize.

because it's a work of fiction and mangling your face and body is fucking stupid
it doesn't make you a "real man" to lose all your teeth and turn your ears and nose into pulpy masses
dumb fucking pseudo-manliness porn for closet betas

Anybody who took it seriously has moved on to the Project. That being said brawling with a loose group of friends taught me a lot. It prepared 15 year old me for real pain, adrenaline and taught me self control.

VOS SÍ QUE TENÉS QUE VENIR AL CLUB EN /argentina/, MI HERMANO
RIZE OR DIE

It got me inspired to work out and wear wacky shirts.

Amen, to that brother.. And wacky coats.

RIZE OR DIE, HERMANO.. UN FIGHT CLUB PARA BUENOS AIRES YA!

This is very much True, I really liked the analogy also.

More obvious level to the story that most people overlook. Trees/forest

You get so caught up in edgy rebel shit, shock value, completely distracted. The friend/personality durden is a complete sleight of hand to you and (unreliable)narrator

Watch the movie again.
Don't forget the goal of wiping out debt from consumerism

>Synopsis of version where you don't see his imaginary friend:

Opening: Stressed out guy trying to fulfill his life by buying shit that he thinks he wants[insert catalog flashes of shit he bought and prices] then eventually maxing out his credit cards with no hope of being able to pay it off. Bankruptcy would be just as bad as repossessions and garnishments for him.

He gets more stressed, less logical, stops sleeping.
He sets up his condo to 'sploded, let insurance pay off debt.

Finds out the fire/cops recognize it as arson, meaning insurance won't pay his debt after the investigation, he now has nothing, plus the cops will be on his ass soon.

He stops sleeping almost entirely. He takes shit like ambien where instead of being asleep, you are awake doing shit you won't remember.

Lack of sleep plus things being done that he doesn't remember: there must be someone else here with me.
Losing mind, developing full blown disassociation disorders.

Do crazy shit, create imaginary friend/2nd personality.

Idea!
1. Spread crazy shit, form cult, get hidden connections everywhere.
2. Use mens frustration/powerlessness/loneliness, save them from it with fighting/violence: male bonding + endorphin addiction, to indoctrinate and remove moral limits.
3. Use cult to overwhelm police resources to slow arson investigation.
FUCK!
Police might arrest me soon for arson or the new shit, insurance has refused claim, credit cards still maxed out.
Idea!
Destroy all credit card records by blowing up 3 major credit firms.
Goal accomplished, 2nd personality and cult no longer needed

get to a bjj gym and then try some mma, now you fucking faggot

It did, it's just called MMA.

I did noticed all that but the guy isn't depicted as that clever in the film nor the book.. but I really enjoyed your synopsis..

How would you break down Fight Club 2 in your own words?

Stfu pleb

watch Mr Robot, it explains why that shit is retarded

Care to explain it yourself? I don't wanna watch a show just to get a few sentences

>characters get idea to basically commit the same act that they do in fight club
>world goes to shit
>everyone in the "fight club" look like fucking idiots except to stupid millenials who try to join them.
>while the entire country is chasing them they think establishing their presence by committing petty acts of vandalism makes sense
>all the members of the group are either mentally ill or shit people

I mean, it's not overt, it pseudo-glamorizes them but winds up being ironic as fuck, the subtext is there but places like reddit don't seem to see it.

Because the movie was made.

Because its a fucking metaphor, jfc

Look up the SF Cacaphony society

Executive Producer: (((Arnon Milchan)))

>Arnon Milchan (Hebrew: ארנון מילצ'ן; December 6, 1944) is an Israeli businessman who has produced over 130 full-length motion pictures.[2] Milchan, a multi-billionaire and owner of New Regency Films, was also a former key Israeli intelligence operative from the mid-1960s to the mid-1980s.[3][4]

Gets caught selling nuclear triggers, then goes on to create (((films))) that rewrite history, and inspire apathy and anger towards the exact wrong targets.

9/11.

There was a lot of debate in the late 90's/early 2000's about globalization and the emasculation of men, and PC culture. Then 9/11 happened and we got distracted.

We're finally finishing a conversation we paused 15 years ago.

Trump is president. We've already mobilized.

MAGA

Thanks.
My take on his intelligence:
The narrator's own awareness of consumerism, despite being blind to his own, plus Durden's even more precise observations and abilities to manipulate, make me see him as "lazy middle class intellectual".

He seems to be smart enough to see shit, but is so burnt out by his meaningless job and life, that he can't see his own addiction.
I think his slow descent into dissociation is what let him accomplish the things he did with such precision.
Like how some people can think more clearly in an emergency than in their day to day life.
I think once he became unable to clearly to the point of talking to himself in physical 3rd person, his subconscious mind was free to do as it wished. His impulses became free, creativity was less restrained, moral issues disappeared, and the normal noise of conscious thought about shit 24/7 was gone.
Free from the normal obligations to self awareness and such, his mind was free to use all it's resources to trying to solve his problems through whatever means necessary.

But, I agree that he still isn't too bright. Most everything started by accident on impulses.

Like I said, sleight of hand.
He was like the rest of the cult, accidentally kind of indoctrinated while distracting himself from being homeless and waiting to be v&, and then spread it to others. It wasn't until it became big and needed a purpose that he decided to try and use his authority as the prophet and savior to start trying to slow the arson investigation by sending minions out to do mischief.
As things got worse, he became more unhinged and came up with the poorly thought out idea of blowing up the buildings.
The slow start early mayhem was just practice with explosives and techniques. No particular intelligence needed, Just a goal of blowing shit up, but needing to practice on smaller shit first.

admit i haven't read the books though.

Studies show the average male is roughly 120 percent less effective than they believed they would be in a combat situation
