Free Thought Costs….Everything

Posted by adrianne curry
Free thought, free will, and general freedom seems like a lost art. You must think EXACTLY as the mob says or off with your head! Being a huge fan of Alan Moore, I can’t help but see how V FOR VENDETTA this country is turning. It seems many call for what can only be considered a Police State. One can only hope a “V” is waiting in the wings…something that cannot be killed because it’s only an IDEA…and ideas are bulletproof. Both the Film AND Comic are fantastic. The comic dances with Fascism vs. anarchy…while the film is American neo-liberalism vs. American Neo-Conservatism.  I feel the films tweaking of the political stance (even though it takes places in Britain) really applies to the United States today.
 
The new trend seems to be using catch phrases, gender or race to shut down anyone’s train of thought or beliefs that you do not agree with. It’s almost like a feminist who’s angry with the point of view from a man. She knows he is right, but gets to shut him down with “YOU’RE A MAN!” I think it is unfair to us all to simply shut someone down using their sex and or skin color for simply not agreeing with your exact train of thought. It is bordering fascism, hence my inability to NOT constantly mull over the graphic novel “V For Vendetta”.
If you haven’t read the comic or seen the movie, I implore you to do so. They ‘re  both amazing…but as I said, the movie greatly applies to American Political issues today.
One of my favorite V scenes

    Honestly I’ve been thinking about this movie since Trump was elected. It conveys some very powerful ideas, and you’re right, those ideas are happening all around us. Those that even DARE go against the social norms are absolutely dragged for it. Anyone that dares become themselves in a sea of sheep – they’re cast out and ridiculed for the slightest of things. I think the part that really really stuck with me from the movie was the scene where Evey is reading the letter written by the gay woman that shared the same cell. The letter that describes the way they rounded up anyone that dared speak out or dared to be themselves in an ever harsh society, black bagged they were and forgotten about. How familes were torn apart without ever knowing why, people just stop coming home…. Sent away to become test subjects, jailed for their ideas and their independent thinking. Murdered for being gay, murdered for not agreeing with their government. Fictional or not — I know many of us are afraid of the day that this happens to us, too. Rounded up like cattle to the slaughter for daring to be ourselves. For being gay, for being trans, for being compassionate. It’s a scary world we live in right now.

      a raised democrat, I am absolutely ASHAMED at the neo-liberalism going on right now. My own friends attempt to shame and ostracize me if I even QUESTION some of the hate thew spew. Ironically, they demand tolerance and rights for some, but not for ANYONE who dare question their demands. I used to be blind and believed conservatives were the problem. But right now, with this psycho PC world, witch hunts and liberal mob mentality, my party I was once proud to be a part of is a bunch of angry buffoons. Trump brought out the worst in us all, but this time, mostly the left. I am now independent. I want nothing to do with that party or the people in it

        I agree, 1000%. The last two years have really opened my eyes about many things and many people. I’m Independent as well, and though I’ve shared some similar thoughts, at certain points in my life, with both sides – the extremism is scary as hell! I don’t get how people think an okay response to what is happening is to do the same thing with their beliefs. Let me just cram this down your throat until you suffocate and scream at you if you protest too much. The corruption is deep on both sides, the wrong doing is on both sides. It’s so fucking wrong to me they dems and repubs keep scapegoating with each other – “OH I ONLY DID THAT BECAUSE THE LIBS OR THE CONSERVATIVES DID THIS” What kind of childish behavior is that? Accountability is lacking, and what I see when I look at the political stage right now? Children. All of them are adult children thinking they’re playing some sort of game. Don’t get their way? Be prepared for a huge tantrum and the finger pointing.

    Wow Adrienne you must be like my spiritual sister! V for vendetta is my favorite movie, I think the wachowski brothers out did themselves making it. It has so many positive ideas that are more and more applicable to our society.

    Could not agree more the sorting, intolerance and down right hate is everywhere from Florida to Missoula, MT ( where I reside) it’s not about equality fairness and tolerance is about vengeance and separating into groups in which you only associate with people that think exactly as you do… it’s not the way or the world I was raised in..and hope that things change while doing my part to raise my girls to be compassionate, open and tolerant of people who believe differently ( hate groups aside ) that is where great change and innovation comes from… my two cents
