Fight Club is basically Antifa.


Fight Club basically consists of loosely organized cells of angry anti-capitalist youths bent on destroying the system. Setting up franchises all over the country.

The "all male" aspect to Fight Club makes them look more like an INCEL/Proud Boy cult. Also, Tyler's philosophy wasn't really anti-capitalist but more like Anarchocapitalist with a streak of populism which is why it attracted men of different ethnicities and social hierarchies.

Antifa is very much pro-corporate. They are not anarchists or rebels. They are nothing but enforcers of a political dogma.

No, it isn't.

- Fight Club grows organically to fulfill a deep and fundamental NEED
- Fight Club isn't created and sponsored by TPTB
- Fight Club members have good motivations, and want to equalize thins and build a better world (though their methods are questionable and won't work)
- Fight Club people are not evil agents, but regular people
- Fight Club people do not seek to murder or injure other people, Steven Crowder has proven (by the undercover stuff) that antifa does seek to do this
- Fight Club is -actually- anti-corporatism, materialism, oppression, wage slavery, etc. Antifa is NOT anti-fascism in practical reality, but in name only.
- Fight Club is honest and real, antifa is sneaky, fabricated, agenda-bsed group of liars and terrorists that use stupid people as useful idiots, and they don't seek to make the world better in any way

Good analysis. Although are we to separate Fight Club from Project Mayhem? For instance it is a modern bullet point for leftist thought to reset all credit card debt, which is the main goal of PM.

Perfectly written.

Bravo

What it has in common is people thinking they are being rebellious and edgy when all they are doing is conforming and following orders. Probably while burning down someone else's neighbourhood.

They didn't hate America like Antifa does and all the fight club members worked regular jobs. Antifa losers still hide in their parents basement.

As well as behind their masks. Fucking pussies.
