No offense, but you're unambiguously a Conservative ideologue. Brazil's bleak cautionary vision of bureaucratic Big Brother erroding individuality through a New World Order's demanding blind obedience to society's "values" is offensive to NeoCons; it apparently strikes a little too close to home. Terry Gilliam effectively lampoons blind patriotism to a corporate society that increasingly insists on individuals sacrificing their personal identity.Brazil's biting satire skewers the systematic manipulation of personal behavior by corporate ideology, which is very much like what our overpopulated melting pot world has become. Those who resist assimilation into this bureaucratic society are deemed radical or terrorists, a threat to be dealt with, but in the end, it's the complacent society which condones the torture of those who don't submit to the unyeilding system, fantasy being the only escape.
