It's a critique of how consumerism couldn't fill the existential void of gen X and early milenials. Young people can relate to that feeling more than the previous generations because even back then things weren't that bad. In Fight Club, Jack has a stable job, a very decent place to live, and no economic problems that we can see (this is why FC and Matrix have been memed to death). The problem with this movie is that it came 20 years ahead of time. Remember how the media lost its collective shit over Joker? Fight Club would've made their fucking heads explode if it had come out back in 2020.
