      It’s true. A lot of my favorite movies are considered red flags just because enough dude bro dipshits misinterpret them.

            How do you interpret and discuss Fight Club and Full Metal Jacket in conversation? I like both of these movies and have never had anyone respond negatively when I’ve discussed them.

            When you talk about Fight Club, are you talking about it in a way which might suggest you think fight clubs are a good idea?

            I’m trying to figure out who would have a problem with Full Metal Jacket.

              It’s how other n people talk about it. They act like Hartman and Tyler were awesome bad asses and not the unhinged assholes they were.

            Those are insanely popular movies.

            I’ve only seen academic critique and of course more cerebral criticisms because of how they were reflections of their time, like many movies.

            If you had actual people in real life attack you for liking these movies, either you were being weird about them and not listening to someone’s academic takes because you don’t understand them or you met a nut. Otherwise I think it’s bullshit and you just wanna be oppressed for liking [POPULAR THING]
