Leans Progressive
Primary
The film's central thesis explicitly promotes progressive ideology by depicting a revolutionary uprising against a fascist, theocratic, and surveillance state, championing individual liberty, free thought, and the power of the people to overthrow oppression.
The movie features a visibly diverse cast in significant roles, reflecting a modern approach to representation. However, its narrative primarily focuses on its science fiction plot, without explicitly critiquing traditional identities or centering around specific DEI themes.
Secondary
The series portrays Christianity, primarily through Father Jack Landry, as a source of moral strength, community, and resistance against alien oppression. Despite the Visitors' attempts to discredit religion, the narrative frames faith as a positive force that provides hope and courage to the human resistance.
The television series 'V' (2009) does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative primarily focuses on an alien invasion and human resistance, without exploring queer identities or experiences.
