Ideas are bulletproof

Having watch the movie V for Vendetta again on DVD, somehow or other I realise that there are quite a number of countries do have the pseudo democratic governance as depicted in the show.

Recalling the scenes where all the news reported on TV was fabricated by the order of Adam Sutler makes me sick. In this present day, you'll be able to identify certain countries with controlled media, or I should say, the state media and no one else. If there should have any producers daring enough to voice out alternative views, that person is going to be "hammered". Either to lose his job, family members' be harassed and etc....

I love this statement the best when V said, " The people should not be afraid of the government, but instead, the government should be afraid of the people" . Too bad some countries don't enjoy such liberties. That's where ideas comes in, but just idea alone won't do much help, it has to be coupled with courage, urgency to act and passion, than only it will be bulletproof.
