Re: Isn't it supposed to be sort of a condemnation of that mindset?

[(Anonymous)]

I actually saw it used as a good example of how most children's TV shows attempts at morality fail and actually make the behavior/mindset worse. Because you have to spend more time condemning a behavior than you do showing it off.

So if you spend 20 minutes showing Main Character being racist and 2 at the end going 'and now we see that racism is bad!' all the kids remember is the 20 minutes of Main Character being racist and are more likely to mimic that behavior because that's what entertained them for the bulk of the time. So Fight Club spends the vast bulk of the movie entertaining people with toxic masculinity ideals and then at the very end puts in a "What a twist, that was bad all along." ending and it doesn't make the same impression. It's nearly two hours of "This behavior is fun to watch!" vs. a couple minutes of "This behavior is bad, don't do it, ok?" and it's easy to see which sticks in people's heads more.
