V for Vendetta and ethics of violence by The Spinoza Triad In the third episode of the Spinoza Triad John Gibbs, Richard Miller and Dan Rowland consider the film V for Vendetta. V for Vendetta is a 2005 dystopian political action film  based on the 1988 graphic novel by Alan Moore and David Lloyd. The film is set in an alternative future where a  neo-fascist totalitarian regime has subjugated the United Kingdom. It centres on V (portrayed by Hugo Weaving), a masked freedom fighter who attempts to ignite a revolution through elaborate terrorist acts, and Evey Hammond (portrayed by Natalie Portman) a young woman caught up in V's mission.  Taking the film as a starting point we discuss, the morality of violence, the Frankfurt School, Kant's Categorical Imperative, Zizek's critique of the left as well as Jungian and Lacanian cultural analysis.  https://anchor.fm/john-gibbs1/message https://sites.google.com/site/thepoliticsteacherorg/home email: jfgibbs105@gmail.com
