V for Vendetta

"Remember, Remember the 5th of November"

The movie V for Vendetta we watched during class is about a lone ranger who is out for revenge. A man who was a test subject for a biological weapon such as a disease who survived and was not the same. St. Mary's was where he was held in cell #5 or V. There was an horrible accident that blew up the plantation and allowing him to escape . The man took upon wearing a hat, mask, and cape. His mission was to kill all those who took act in this biological idea, and he succeeded. The other was to send a message to the British government and the people of England. V planned for an explosion on the parliament on November 5th but left it in the hands of his side kick Evie. V saved her life one day when she was about to get mugged and she returned the favor when V was held at gunpoint by an officer and she pepper sprayed the officer allowing V to escape. From that point on V began his mission to kill all who took act in St. Mary's. Evie realized why V was doing all this, at first she didn't agree but soon she began to think and act like V and sent the train on its way way to finish off V's mission.

I've been noticing people tend fall in love with a conspiracy once they are particularly involved or endangered by it. It reminds me of Ebola which is the virus outbreak that is now in United states where it once developed in Africa. When Ebola was in Africa no one cared everyone ignored the helpless needs and treatment the Africans needed. Everyone in the United States didn't care about Ebola up until now where Ebola has reached the U.S.A and now everyone is so concerned about their own lives and everyone wants to help now

The difference between Propaganda and Conspiracy is propaganda is the telling or warning of a conspiracy to soon come. Propaganda also is the act of encouraging of a conspiracy the point of this is to gain support from the people to make this conspiracy happen or to even raise awareness. In my opinion conspiracy is nothing with out propaganda because there is no information on the happening and there are no rumors to spread the idea around.

In my opinion V is a hero not a villain, he is for all about revenge but it doesn't only benefit him as it benefits others. V is thought to be a terrorist causing havic on the people and everyone around him but surprisingly the people aren't scared or worried about V they are interested in what he stands for.

Conspiracy theory was used by the government to scare or worry the people of England, also conspiracy theory was used to provoke the people to help search and inform the government of the location of the terrorist. The government also used the tactic of using the media to trick the people into believing everything was alright. The media was also used to clear the history of V to maintain the people from favoring V's idea.
