I think V is slightly more of a terrorist than a freedom fighter. The first reason is that he kills many people, most of which he shouldn’t have to. The second reason is that he blows up buildings, which is quite extreme, especially the courthouse at the beginning. The third reason, and the biggest, is when he hijacks the news station. First he threatens to suicide bomb the place, and then after he dresses up many innocent people as himself, some of which die. Overall, that much violence and destruction isn’t necessary, so that’s why I think V is more of a terrorist.
