Tylee Durden is am allegory for toxic masculinity. He talks a big game about individuality and self-determination, but Project Mayhem is even more strictly conformist and anti-individualistic than the corporate culture it's rebelling against.
People like Andrew Tate watch the movie and think Tyler Durden is an example to be followed but they don't even take on his critique of capitalism.
Like. In his speech at the start, about how your possessions own you, he's not wrong about society. But instead of offering a real solution, all he does is gather men with social issues into a rage-fuelled terrorist cult which he can't even control. Much like the One Ring uses good intentions to corrupt its wearer to evil, so Tyler Durden uses genuine feelings of dissatisfaction and disaffection men feel in the late 20th century to pointlessly destructive aims, ultimately reproducing the very power structures they claim to fight against.
