V admits this in the story. That’s why he sacrificed himself. He knows he’s not fit for the world he’s trying to create by taking out the people who are just like him.
Please do not get involved in revolutionary movements if you cannot understand how violently torturing someone into slavery/submission is morally incorrect.
First of all, I’m not sure that’s an accurate description of the text of the film. V did not torture Evey into servitude, he didn’t break her spirit, she did not become dependent on or obedient to him. Shortly after, she is free to leave his company, which she does, after thanking him.
Second of all, I’m not sure she would have thanked the Fingermen who were going to rape and murder her for being out after curfew at the beginning of the film.
He still tortures the shit out if Evie in the film
To radicalize her, yeah.
Which makes V just as bad if not worse than the society he’s fighting against.

How?
How is torture bad…?
How is a man torturing one woman equal to or worse than a fascist regime guilty of ethnic cleansing?

Just because there are other bad people does not make V good. Moore would tell you this himself.
