Great article. Not to mention luring/forcing people to food points and then killing them.

I'm reading the series right now and I can see the parallels. The surveillance by the Israeli government, the propaganda, the violence, and suppression in mainstream media. Historically it has never ended well for leaders who starve and annex people of their country.

Ok I didn't know about that irony but it's kinda nice ,

And yes , THE HUNGER GAMES IS THE BOOK I ASSOCIATE WITH GAZA THE MOST , THE PROPAGANDA, THE AID PARACHUTES, THE ARENA RIPRISENTING GAZA STRIP , THE PROTESTS AND ARRESTS , THIS SHOULD BE A ZIONIST FREE SERIES

And my respect for Jen Lawrence has dropped alot ( and yes I just finished sunrise on the reaping )

Thank you for stating that out

of course! and thank you for your comment! :) there are sooooo many parallels and it's honestly baffling how anyone could be a zionist and like these books - let alone root for Katniss. Free Palestine!

fantastic article! + omg i didn’t know about that Variety article, that’s actually disgusting. i’m also so disappointed in Jennifer Lawrence—like, how can she make that speech and then literally be silent right now 😤

yeah, I was baffled to come across it while writing this lmao because the absolute contrast of her words back then and her actions now is ridiculous. and again, as someone who played katniss… I just could never understand her thought process

Thankfully she has spoken up against the genocide and actually called it a genocide I don’t know how recent it is but you can find it on YouTube .

I did see that! unfortunately, it seems like she is only speaking up now because it is comfortable to do so. her defending amy schumer when she said such terrible things about arab people will not be erased by this. it's great she called it what it is, but it was simply too late.
