Jonathan Swift’s Modest Proposal worked because it was satire not written for the subjugated Irish, calling them out for providing their babies to be eaten in London. It was written for the would-be baby eaters at the heart of British empire. Swift wasn’t punching down.
DSA has some modest electoral successes. I sincerely hope DSA is an appropriate target for satirical criticism in 2028. But to think DSA has any power today is laughable, surpassing the degree of Curb’s funniest material.
