is fight club making fun of us?
i feel one of the points raised in fight club is that lost men will follow anyone who promises them a false sense of indiviuality.
members of fight club see someone they want to be in tyler durden, so they take his word as if it were scripture, without realizing that these actions bordered on immorality.
the mayhem members felt as if they were different from the fast lane 9-5 workers but didnt realize that they were indifferentiable amongst themselves too ( false sense of indiviuality )
-The purposeless man first follows tylers dangerous fight club thats been painted as a cathartic release centre to get his ass whopped.
-the purposeless man shaves his head, commits crime and makes himself as an outlaw just because their schizoid leader promised them freedom.
-the purposeless man chants 'his name is robert paulsen' further showing that these dudes have lost any sense of self and are mere sheeps in a herd.
so does chuck make fun of a significant number of the viewers who treat this movie like the bible and admire durden without a single deep conscious thought?
