#Lucy gray Baird

What's also fucked up about it is his hypocrisy of it all in which he's starving and had to experience living poor in the Capitol just as much as she did yet because she's "District," she's considered "less than."

When Lucy Gray says "I am not district" what she means is I am Covey. I had a culture, I had a people. You stole it from me. I will not allow you to erase it, I will not let you make me forget who I really am, I refuse to be what you say I have to be.

When Snow says "Lucy Gray isn't really district" what he means is unlike all those others in the districts Lucy Gray is practically a person. Lucy Gray is so much better than everyone else in the districts could ever hope to be. Lucy Gray is just about human.

Yet Snow is under the impression they are saying the same thing.

You've heard of Katniss and Lucy Gray having Appalachian accents. You've heard of the Capitol having Mormon accents. Now get ready for: President Coin and 13 having New York accents

what makes Snow such a formidable villain within THG universe is that nothing he does was set in stone. there was no sense of inevitability about his actions and his brutality. Snow had enough perspective of poverty, capital cruelty, district hunger and not to mention his own arena experience’ and yet he actively chose at every moment to stray from natural goodness. its even more terrifying in the sense that he had the ability to care. Snow is not a mindless sociopath, he displays feelings to others such as sejanus, lucy grey and tigris but ultimately he will always choose himself. his ability to betray those he cared about in order yo advance himself makes him so much more than the stereotypical villain who is forced into his actions.

Snow always comes across as cold and unbothered when he’s dealing with Katniss and the rebellion- but knowing how actually delusional and unhinged that man’s inner monologue is and with all the Katniss/Lucy Gray parallels I know when he was alone that man was probably ripping his hair out and screaming trying to figure out how the two are connected and assuming all of Katniss’ actions had ulterior motives that were directed at him. Just raving in his room alone like:

there was a moment when the people in the movie theatre and the capitol audience in the stands were laughing at the same things, having the same reactions to the games, to the deaths, to flickermans jokes, to the doctor's announcement...i wonder aren't we watching it for entertainment too

suzanne collins' books may exist in popular culture as "dystopian", but they have always been a meticulous and startlingly close social critique of our world. at what point does our own idolization of the movies and the books repeat that story? we watch just as the capitol audience does.

all dystopia eventually crosses a line from realistic futurism to current relevancy. how long will it take us to realize we've already crossed that line with these books? and the very people who need to realize this are the ones in that audience...real or fake, we're the same: consuming and consuming.
