The Hounds *claim* the townsfolk can't live without them, but, I don't think we really have evidence that would be true. Individually these people couldn't survive on their own, sure. But there's a bunch now. People are just accepting what was said at face value.
I don't get people who don't get the rebellion, like he literally brutally murdered ALL of their families right in front of them, they're beaten up by the hounds who treat them as play things, they're forced to be in these pretend trials where they vote for their friend to get bludgeoned to death out of fear of being turned on themselves, and now they're meant to play all happy family with a probable sociopath like?? People risk their lives in real actual rebellions all over the world for a reason, this isn't some unbelievable thing
