I mean, I find them all annoying. But it just seems that the complete lack of materialism makes it even more cringe. CK2's After the End is actually fun and unique because it's supposed to not really make sense and exaggeration of American tropes, but shit like A24's new movie or all the other civil war porn created by NATOids are so annoying to witness.

    I think in the book V kills a bunch of people and also paralyzes the government by revealing to the dictator that the computer the dictator was bonk for was really V all along? Idk, but i remember it being slightly more coherent, and the end was sort of metaphorical about how after the " fuck shit up and break things" anarchist revolution it's up to you to build an anarchist society. Like V is the hard core revolutionaries who all sacrifice themselves to kill the state and then Evie is supposed to teach the normal people how to live without a state or something? It's been a really long time.

        Yeah. the book is Alan Moore being weird and esoteric, the movie is much much more libbed up.
