He's obsessed 
with social 
status like women, he has an obsessive interest in fashion 
brands like a woman, he takes intricate care to decorate his apartment instead of just having the classic 
TV, couch 
+ playstation, he wastes time each morning 
with an elaborate skincare routine. He is utterly obsessed 
with social 
relations and the relative standing 
of some people relative to himself, barely seeing the person 
behind 
the titles and labels. That's all foid behavior.
His friends 
all sit around gossiping like women, they're polite and passive aggressive to each other's face but talk shit about each other like women. Patrick 
Bateman 
holds pathetic 
grudges over dumb shit, he feels 
envy at Paul Allen in a very feminine 
manner over getting a reservation at Dorsia (what guy actually 
cares about going 
to fancy 
restaurants?).
Take away the serial 
killing 
and swap his gender 
to female 
and you'll have the average foid in a corporate 
environment, and I mean that without an ounce of exaggeration.
Yet this guy is looked up to and fetishized by people as a sigma masculine icon?

Never actually saw the movie. What's the deal? Is it actually good or just memeable?

It's okay. 'Soulless corporate man is actually soulless and psychopathic' never seemed that deep to me tho

It's funny. Patrick
Bateman 
is a violent 
psychopath social 
climber, except he's entirely indistinct from his coworkers. He's a yuppie loser. Schizoid delusion boiling over, you're not sure if anything 
he does is real.
During an investigation, for example, the scene
is filmed 3 different 
ways and spliced together. Once where 
the detective 
(Dafoe) knew the truth, once where 
he didn't, once where 
he wasn't sure.
