A Modest Proposal

 

News that I missed courtesy of The Babylon Bee:

 

NEW YORK, NY—Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently held a town hall where a party of orcs stole the show.

As Ocasio-Cortez was driving home a point about saving the planet by decreasing our own existence, an orc spoke up and said “What about them? They’re fresh!” pointing at some hobbits in the audience. “Excuse me?” asked a confused AOC. “We could eat them,” exclaimed the hungry orc. “Yeah,” chimed in another, “Why can’t we have some meat?”

Taken aback, the congresswoman stammered as she thought about how to respond. Meanwhile, the rowdy orcs continued with their suggestions: “I’m starving. We ain’t had nothing but maggoty bread for three stinking days!”

Finally, a large, threatening Uruk-Hai spoke up in their defense, “They are not for eating!” As the democratic socialist tried to gain control of the meeting, another shouted out, “What about their legs? They don’t need them. Ooh, they look tasty! Just a mouthful. A bit off the flank.”

The frightened hobbits weren’t sure how to respond. “I think we might have made a mistake, leaving the Shire,” whispered one Halfling to another. “Nasty orcses!” bellowed a gangled creature who was once not very different from a hobbit.

Go here to read the rest.  Now this is too much Bee!  You know very well that no one ever suggested at an Ocasio-Cortez town hall that hobbits be eaten.  It was only suggested that human babies be eaten.  Infant cannibalism, soon to the Leftist cause du jour.

Oh c’mon now, this will never happen. (it already is)
We would never abort a baby that fully formed.
We would never kill a baby if it survived a botched abortion.
No one would ever abort a baby because of its gender?
Only a monster like Hitler would allow the murder of a baby for the use of its body parts or tissue!
You don’t really believe abortion will ever lead to murdering or suiciding someone on the other end of the age spectrum?
Tell me you are aware that we are an educated, “civilized” society?
The truth be told…there has never been a more uncivilized society than what we are living in. Not only does all this take place, we know it and collectively shrug our shoulders. Heck, even our Pope tells us to get over it. Total unrestricted AND condoned barbarism and we haven’t seen nothing yet.

Gotta admit here, I have a hard time seeing Lyndon Larouche as Sharkey. Wormtongue maybe.

The difference is Swift was employing satire. These execrable people are serious.

Many of you disapprove me saying, “You won’t be getting into Heaven if you vote Democrat.” Because voting Dem promotes mass, organized evil.

The orc who wants to eat babies to save the planet was a Rouchie
Or so I read.

I agree with T. Shaw. Again.

So the lefty rags are now saying it was staged and that the woman was a plant. I’m going with Venus Flytrap.
