As far as I can tell the message of the movie is "consumerism is bad because it's emasculating and feminizing, real liberation can be found in ruthless hierarchies of masculine violence"
The only person I know who likes it IRL also has a tendency to complain about the "pussification of modern men"
I think this is a great post. Do you have any thoughts on how well, if at all, the movie adaptation coheres to its source material?
