question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Jonathan Swift is Negative . Jonathan Swift  we need you more than ever.
This week marks the 350th birthday of the brilliant Irish writer  born Nov. 30  1667. That we know of  Swift  at all is one of the sweetest fortunes of literary history.  His  father died of syphilis before Jonathan was born. A wet nurse whisked him to England for three years. He depended on the generosity of an uncle. He was almost killed by a mail bomb. But despite those precarious turns   Swift  became a poet  a priest  a political operator and  of course  the greatest satirist in the English language.
The longevity of  Swift ’s work is a testament to its potency because no genre fades as quickly: Satires are the cut flowers of literature. Time wilts their wit  fading their bright colors like old political cartoons that poke fun at fat cats we no longer recognize. (Voltaire adored Samuel Butler’s 1663 mock heroic poem “Hudibras ” but try reading it now without footnotes.)
[Jonathan Swift: Not (entirely) the misanthrope you thought you knew]
W.B. Yeats knew what he was talking about when he said of  Swift   “Imitate him if you dare.”
Consider the remarkable persistence of “A Modest Proposal ” published anonymously in 1729.  Swift ’s ironic phrase is such a hardy part of our language that it’s easy to forget how unlikely it is that we’d still be referring to a 3 000-word political pamphlet almost 300 years later. Originally titled “A Modest Proposal for Preventing the Children of Poor People From Being a Burden to Their Parents or Country  and for Making Them Beneficial to the Public ” the essay burns with rage at a privileged class willing to ignore and rationalize human suffering. Although the plight of starving Irishmen may be unimaginable to us today  the centuries have done nothing to mute  Swift ’s savage indignation.  He  still sounds as timely as last night’s “Daily Show.”
If you haven’t read “A Modest Proposal” since high school  look it up again and be astounded. Speaking in the voice of a perfectly reasonable bureaucrat   Swift  begins by describing the piteous state of beggars and their children “all in rags  and importuning every passenger for an alms.” In response to this “deplorable state ”  he  announces a solution  “having no other motive than the publick good of my country  by advancing our trade  providing for infants  relieving the poor  and giving some pleasure to the rich”:
Much of Swift’s essay is taken up with various statistics and logistical explanations  a hellacious spreadsheet of infant flesh to lay out the case for utilizing 100 000 children nursed to approximately 28 pounds each. In those well-modulated sentences   Swift  washes individuals and their pain away. As John Stubbs writes in his recent biography   Swift  possessed an “unequalled capacity to endow a ludicrous line of argument with an air of steadfast reason.” The bloody solution of “A Modest Proposal” is easy to laugh off as a bit of grotesque hyperbole  but the real horror of the essay remains its bland  bureaucratic tone — the same sterile language of accounting that justified American slavery  the Holocaust or any scheme that slices human lives into the columns of a ledger.
If politicians haven’t changed their menu much in 300 years  the rest of us still face the same risk of indigestion. Remember that “Gulliver’s Travels” ends with the intrepid narrator isolated and disgusted. Orwell assumed that Gulliver reflected his creator’s morose character and claimed that  Swift  suffered from a “general hatred of humanity” stoked by a perverse obsession with mankind’s sins and weaknesses. Stubbs argues that the image of  Swift  as a “misanthropic monster” is not entirely fair  but Gulliver’s fate is instructive  nonetheless.
Now that we’re all strident critics trading the day’s outrages across Twitter and the dining room table  how are we to avoid being sickened by our own bitter indignation? The bile in a satirist’s mind must be balanced with hope  or the whole enterprise is doomed. Surely   Swift  wouldn’t have bothered to poke fun at cruelty  incompetence and hypocrisy unless  he  believed  on some level  that such scalding exposure could awaken a better nature.
On  his  350th birthday  it’s good to remember that despair is the satirist’s temptation and the citizen’s poison.
answer:
no


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Gloria Allred is Positive . Sitting across a boardroom table   Gloria Allred  looks exactly as  she  did during any one of the thousands of TV appearances  she 's made in the last 40 years. The red power suit ( she  has a closet full of them)  chunky gold jewelry  puckish smile â it's all the same. What appears different about the 76-year-old lawyer has nothing to do with  her  personally  and everything to do with the way society has  at last  begun to catch up with  her . Now the same perspective shift that changed Bill Cosby from a beloved TV dad to an accused rapist in the public consciousness  is casting the woman most responsible for making the accusations against him public in a different light too.  She 's been derided for years as a spotlight-seeking opportunist â and now  finally   Allred  is getting  her  due.
Seeing Allred  a new documentary which recently premiered at this year's Sundance Film Festival and began streaming on Netflix on February 9th  chronicles  her  career as pioneering civil rights lawyer  relentless advocate for gender equality and tireless champion for sexual harassment and abuse victims. The film traces virtually every aspect of  Allred 's life  from  her  birth in Philadelphia 76 years ago through to last yearâs Womenâs March on Washington. (Regrettably  it stops just short of capturing the activist in the thick of #MeToo  the movement she helped lay the groundwork for; ditto the Harvey Weinstein scandal that embroiled  Gloria  and  her  daughter  and the defeat of Roy Moore  which she helped engineer.) She has somehow managed to spend decades at the white-hot center of every polarizing national news story â from OJ Simpson to marriage equality â without ever once soliciting a client.
Rolling Stone spoke with  Allred  about  her  life   her  work   her  thoughts on the documentary ... and everything it missed.
It's insulting to think that sexual harassment is about shaking someone's hand. It's not â legally  that's not sexual harassment. Even if the person didnât consent to having their hand shaken. That doesnât meet the legal standard. So I think itâs insulting to suggest that. Itâs insulting to those who allege that they have been drugged and sexually assaulted by Mr. Cosby. In a way  it minimizes what theyâve said. So whether he's just trying to be funny â drugging and sexually assaulting someone is not funny ... if    in fact  he did  it . And the allegations by more than half a million women on #MeToo â thatâs not a laughing matter. It's not about shaking hands  that hashtag.
answer:
yes


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Newt Gingrich is Negative . WASHINGTON   DC â Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA)  spoke to the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) on Friday about the danger posed by Iran and accused the U.S. State Department of listening to that dictatorship more than to those who seek a free and democratic Iran.
 Gingrich  said  he  has lobbied for the Iranian resistance movement in the U.S. and the Peopleâs Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) since  he  was the top Republican in the House.
 Gingrich  said:
 Gingrich  acknowledged that Iranians have suffered in exile in Iraq at Camp Liberty and Camp Ashraf where thousands of members and sympathizers of MEK have been living for the past 25 years:
 Gingrich  said  âAnd I hope that this administration will now be part of this process of beginning to unravel both the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and then  ultimately  the dictatorship.â
That unraveling should include the U.S. designating the IRGC a terrorist organization  which would have a direct impact on the Iranian economy  according to  Gingrich .
 Gingrich  said in  his  remarks that the extent of the danger posed by Iran cannot be understated.
âAs long as that dictatorship is in power  as long as itâs able to spend money  as long as it is able to project terrorism around the world  it is ultimately a mortal danger to the United States â  Gingrich  said. âAnd of course  it was a terrible thing for the Iranian people.â
âA dictatorship which  in 1988  killed 30 000 people  something which for some reason The New York Times and The Washington Post donât find to be horrifying â  Gingrich  said.
 Gingrich  detailed the Iranâs aspirations in a chilling laundry list:
 Gingrich  also praised President Donald Trump on  his  decision to decertify the JCPOA nuclear deal  calling it âjust about exactly the right pathâ and said that the presidentâs public remarks about Iran have been bold.
That includes Trumpâs speech to the United Nations  which  Gingrich  said was âprobably the strongest condemnation of Iran  of the Iranian dictatorship  ever uttered in the United Nations.â
answer:

no
