Many people argue that the purpose of The Hunger Games is to discuss the topics of fascism and capitalism, but many ignore the deeper meaning of the issues presented in both the novels and the movies. It's the entertainment value of the unfortunate chosen who are forced to kill themselves than those of the capital enjoy. They are advertised and marketed to an extreme extent, as well as dressed up and dined as a means to create a personal connection from the audience to the participants. While it's argued that this is to signify the class differences due to wealth and poverty, this really shows the threats and problems that occur with the interpersonal enjoyment of reality tv and entertainment through the enjoyment of both beauty and violence shown in this series.
I think you're brushing aside the elements of Fascism present in the series. The commodification of a death battle into must-see tv for the capital isn't too out of line with the fascistic mindset. The valuation of might, the subjugation of the lesser. All on TV is something ideologues are attracted to. – Sunni Rashad5 months ago
