i feel like fiction is different from reality

Absolutely

Fiction is for you to live vicariously through these people. It appeals to instincts you aren't able to follow in real life for obvious reasons, ie, killing/hurting everyone who wrongs you is a stupid way of solving your problems

For instance, Austin/McMahon tapped into a cultural late 90s thing of really hating suit-wearing bosses that Fight Club and The Matrix both played into as well. You can't actually start an underground fight club with brad pitt though and you can't go around stunnering your boss and his entire family either. But you kind of want to in a way. It feels good to imagine it, but it's not something you would do because IRL you know that's a ridiculous way of solving your problems and creates more problems than it solves.
