lol Bree needs to reread the book as an adult and include the two new prequels. Devastating. Also I’d like to add that Katniss is notoriously an unreliable narrator and the only POV in the 3 books, and the point of the books was the commentary on fascism and the rebellion not glorifying the kids fighting to the death so that was always the direction Suzanne intended it to go and the reason why agent just pumping out novels for every single hunger games there was. She picks out the story and characters she wants to share.

It's been like a decade since I read the books, so I don't remember a ton of how things differed in them compared with the movies, but just from the movies, I really don't see that. I mean, unless you're talking about his military tactic, which then I'd agree, since that was the whole point. But if you're talking about his relationship with Katniss I don't see a hint of manipulation there. Manipulation requires an intent to influence someone to act/be the way you want. But from the scenes we get, he seems to pretty clearly respect her feelings and choices. He's hurt and confused by her, though, and because she's confused and gives such strong mixed signals, he kind of reciprocates that. But I don't think it's manipulation at all, just poor communication and a lack of self-reflection.
Not that you'll likely actually read this response, though, since I don't think this website notifies you about replies, and it's highly unlikely you'll actively visit this page again to read comments.

With beard guy, i get the symbolism, as snow said that white was his color and perfection and thats why shes in red to represent the color snow is actual representing which the blood hes shed along the way from his corrupt ways, but it would have been better if she put the red armor to kill him and she kills coin who in itself was a new snow and she got her "hands" covered in blood.
