They also unironically idolize the character,
Patrick Bateman from American Psycho, treating him as the archetypal sigma male, when said character is actually a depraved psychopath, necrophile and
serial killer who is not even supposed to be likable in the first place and was created by the author, Bret Easton Ellis, as a negative caricature of shallow,
materialistic yuppies from the 80s. And no, almost none of these "Sigma" males have actually read American Psycho, nor seen its film adaptation, hence why they completely miss the point of his character and admire him for all the wrong reasons.
