Nope.
By the way, "idiot" (comes from ancient Greek and Latin and is spelled the same way in many languages) means "common man" or "private man" or "ignorant man of strong opinions".
I pay enough in the coin of cultural collapse to pay more to see crude propaganda. Well crafted and skillful propaganda, maybe. Especially if there is some mocking metaphor of self and audience. In "V" mockery of the audience is extreme and obvious. The lesson of "V" is that humanity is a herd of pigs.
