What I don't get is why everyone thinks every single person in the Panem districts was extremely poor or living in absolute poverty.

Like, a lot of them were in the underclass/hardship level (like Katniss and Gale's families taking out tesserae), but there were also the working poor like Peeta (who didn't need tesserae but still ate stale bread). Then you had the working or lower-middle class, like Maysilee's family (she had never been hungry before, and her family purchased expensive jewelry).

People believe this misconception so much that they think it's impossible for there to be fat people in Panem, lol. Has anyone else come across people like this?

I think this is such an interesting question, and I have only seen one person ask this (TikTok: @iwclique). Personally, I think Cato's death in the movies is better since he doesn't have to suffer all night. Like, I get his suffering plays a role, but it did not need to go on all night.

I'm hoping to do a complete makeover of my switch lite and I'd like a reshell
