Real Satire

The attached link is extremely serious satire regarding the subject of rape and abortion that is currently a highly contentious subject in America. I haven’t read satire like it since Jonathan Swift’s "A Modest Proposal." It is powerful, evocative, and little disturbing. As the author states, it may contain triggers for those who have suffered at the hands of such monsters. I want to share it because it makes its point well.

Dear god, PLEASE let this election & all the rape-related discussions around it actually lead to something CHANGING.

what are you trying to say – that I need to accept a life without meaning?

It’s kind of frightening how you can read all about the fluffy insignificant parts of my days – and then pinpoint the most significant aspect with one simple sentence. I don’t know how a man like you comes to be, but I wish there were more people like you, in general.
