| − | |Fight club is considered to be a "conservative classic" for audiences mature enough to handle the violence and language. It argues against the idea that society can alter or control our basic human nature. One of the characters rants against consumerism which lead liberals to believe it is anti-capitalist moral, but don't be fooled. In reality it's pro self governance and anti-consumerism moral. We can't fill our happiness with buying things. It's pro-masculinity and warns society of the dangers of trying to suppress masculinity and promotes assertiveness and strength in men's minds and bodies. Gay authors can write pro-man books. | + | |Fight club is considered to be a "conservative classic" for audiences mature enough to handle the violence and language.
