I don't just aim to be like them. I have been just like them for years, hence the fact that I connected with them when I finally got around to seeing these movies.
Someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets. I go all over. I take people to the Bronx, Brooklyn, I take ’em to Harlem. I don’t care. Don’t make no difference to me. It does to some. Some won’t even take spooks. Don’t make no difference to me.
Take personal responsibility for your life instead of blaming society, living in filth, and going insane. Paul Schrader was the original self improooover
>self improvement is masturbation
No but how was Travis supposed to improve his life exactly? He had a job, a place to live, and was physically fit. Outside of that, what can a lone man really do to improve their life? I'm honestly asking - as I'm in a similar position.
He chose to be alone and live in filth. In the film you see he has decent money but he chooses to live in a shitty apartment and only roam the streets in the bad parts of town at night. He WANTS to see the world as shitty, because he needs something to hate. He intentionally destroys his relationship with that one girl so he can have a reason to be depressed. Everything wrong in his life is his own fault, just like most incels, neets, ect
>intentionally destroys his relationship with that one girl so he can have a reason to be depressed.
He didn't, he was such an outcast and so clueless that he took a date to a porno because that was all he knew what to do with her. He really tried to win her back and she didn't, and in the face of that rejection he rejected her back. He did yearn for companionship and thought he had found a similar person to him, at least in regards to solitude and "being a sad person". Travis sabotaged himself without meaning to, it was a symptom of his social exclusion.

He didn’t have any issues with himself, he was so disgusted with the degenerate world he was grasping for some way to make a difference
Did he do it, did he kill them? When I first saw the film and the next scene had Travis talking to Wiz I thought that the problem he needed help with was getting rid of a body in his trunk.
You too can be a successful vigilante if you try
We live in a society
yes

ultimate anti hero
you can't beat criminals under capitalistic regime
Don't be cruel, to a heart that's true
If you kill Ronald Reagan then jodie foster will never forget about you.
Dont meet your heroes

Don't take women to sleazy porn theaters on the first date.

>JUST SELF IMPROOOOOOOOVE BRO
He was literally mentally ill from his time in the war you fricking moron
He didn’t have any issues with himself, he was so disgusted with the degenerate world he was grasping for some way to make a difference
N(J)ew York City is terrible
give the lonely guy a chance
Rise to the occasion, when you see evil around you do not look away. Act!
Why was he so good as a psychotic cuckold?
Did he do it, did he kill them? When I first saw the film and the next scene had Travis talking to Wiz I thought that the problem he needed help with was getting rid of a body in his trunk.
You have to be your own hero first.
You have to look up to yourself before others look up to you.
If u see human trafficking, don’t tell the authorities, just get your pussy ass in there and kill all the pimps yourself
Be the change you seek in the world
when society doesnt allow you to be a hero and dumps you in a world of aimless wandering, you will manifest it disturbing and violent ways.
>boomer incels could date women like this
I always wonder if hes daydreaming in some sequences but the date at the adult theatre shows he did manage to score a date.
