Very true, but as the movie says it’s a symbol. “Symbols are given power by people” and Guy Fawkes as a symbol is no longer tied to his historical actions. It symbolizes the character V, revolution, and the power of people to make change.
In much the same way a swastika means Nazi. Theres always that one guy that will tell you its an ancient symbol that means peace, but show anyone on the planet and they’ll say its a nazi thing.

This symbol says “I want to blow people up for God!”
Symbols should be chosen with more care, and not adopted from movies or comic books.
