The V For Vendetta meme is primarily centered around the Guy Fawkes mask, popularized by the 2005 film adaptation of Alan Moore’s graphic novel. In the film, the mask is worn by 'V,' an anarchist revolutionary fighting a dystopian government. The mask's distinctive grin and stylized features were later adopted by the online activist group Anonymous, turning it into a global symbol for protest, digital freedom, and anti-establishment sentiment. On social media, the meme is used both for serious political commentary and ironic jokes, often referencing the famous 'Remember, remember, the fifth of November' line or depicting the wearer as a sophisticated 'hacker' or social critic.
