Remember the Twilights Zone episode called "To Serve Man"? Looking forward to the proliferation of the latest new tat du jour: USDA PRIME. Imagine ending your days in a crock pot surrounded by carrots, potatoes, celery, mushrooms, onions, generous dashes of McIhenny Verde and many fine herbs and spices to suit each diner's personal preferences. I have seriously considered vegetarianism until the FDA is restored. This particular proposal shall push me over the edge.

Currently, there are over 47 million Americans who do not have enough to eat, a term delightfully sanitized by the Deep State as “food insecure.” Worst is yet to come. Donald "The Beast" Trump is building a wall once again. Colossal tariff wall that is the beginning of the end for the system of down. At first the beast will pull the plug out of the global economy. The worst financial crisis of human history will pull a swarm of the banks underwater and the bank run begins. Then the beast will collapse a mountain of debt shattering the backbone of the monetary system causing a systemic risk to realize. Finally the beast will cast American citizens into a system slavery under the name of Ronald Wilson Reagan, just to "honor his legacy" count the number. After the destruction a new world order will be established in the US. And the Golden Age begins from the ruins of the world wide collapse. All of the system slaves will love it. No more cash - just digital transactions. No more traditional criminal activity. No more tax evasion. No more transactions without the "all seeing eye". Outcasts will hate the world without freedom, hope and privacy. To cover up the mess and distract the public by smoke and mirrors, the beast will engage in a war with Iran. Lies and deceit, corruption and decay, dancing on the graves will continue. Until; Black hole sun, won't you come, won't you come... I want to play a game. Time has come to opt out of the empire of filth. Live or die...

An analysis of Jonathan Swift’s 1729 essay suggested that the rhetorical power of the essay derived from causing the reader “to consider just what perverted values and assumptions would allow such a diligent, thoughtful, and conventional man to propose so perverse a plan.”

But I’m sure that won’t happen in the case of your readers, Mr. Stevens!

Thanks for the essay, and for inspiring me to learn about the first Modest Proposal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Modest_Proposal

BE PREPARED and EDUCATE Democrats: 2026 Midterm Elections DISENFRANCHISING VOTERS

Don’t be distracted PEOPLE There won’t be any more free and fair elections after 2024 according to Trump https://bit.ly/3FqVCYa July 27, 2024

This bit.ly/41UelTx will open your eyes as to a RIGGED ELECTION by Republican power brokers Since they were successful in 2024 they now have a plan for all future elections And Trump has removed all agencies that would protect future elections CISA(Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency), EI-ISAC (Election Infrastructure Information Sharing and Analysis Center), EAC(Elections Assistance Agency), FEC(Federal Election Commission)

Vigilante Inc America’s New Voter Suppression Hitmen https://bit.ly/3DM7d3F outlines a voter stealing project originating out of the Georgia Republican party but now spreading to many states and by state legislative actions that led up to the rigged 2024 election(in 2024 9 states had laws allowing vigilante voter rejection….4 of them swing states) The vigilante movement’s sole purpose was to deny voters particularly Black voters their right to vote It’s out of the 1946 KKK violent Black voter suppression playbook with a contemporary 21st century twist that evolved out of the Big Lie movement after 2020 In the 2024 election the removal of 3.5million with voting rights by an estimated 40,000 vigilantes worked to knowingly eliminate voters This 3.5m votes would have been enough for Harris/Waltz to be elected

Voter intimidation by creating fear amongst the electorate particularly among the Black leads to voter suppression It would not be surprising that part of Trump’s pardoning of the J6 insurrectionists among many others is to use them as vigilantes or an armed militia to suppress not only the Black vote but the white Democrat vote This is probably in full swing as you read this

Don’t be naïve Don’t vote provisionally because it won’t be counted Vote early to be sure that the voter registration is secure and be wide awake We are reliving the beginnings of Hitler's Nazi Germany

STOP NAZI ELECTION SUBVERSION

You have joined the ranks of great satirists.... other ideas: bring back gladiator shows!; how about labor camps?; public hangings/crucifixions? Watch it on Fox! DT can hold his cabinet meetings during intermissions...there will be plenty of corporate sponsors

Yes! Soylent Green. Roll it out onto a green to test the putting texture. Trump’s golf course in West Palm Beach is literally next door to the jail. They could be kept fresh at the jail. Perhaps served in a buffet by body part dishes. (Note: Sarcasm!)

This sort of sounds like the dystopian thriller, "Soylent Green" but humorously creepy. Peter Thiel sounds dangerous. After reading this I am somewhere between a laugh and an Eck!

Morbid, and gruesome but practical for the needs of the wealthy. And after all, the wealthy are all who matter. trump could play in a musk sponsored Soylent Green golf tournament at Mat a Lago. A theme at a trump tower restaurant could be 'How to execute the perfect meal.' fox could produce a thumbs up, or thumbs down mass hysteria program similar to voting on The Voice. The profit and mad king entertainment possibilities are endless...

Absolutely. I can also see the trump admin, with the full throated support of RFKwack Jr. promoting an Eat American agenda...
