Fortune Cookie Politics

By Chloe Summers � The satire Fortune Cookie Politics ridicules leadership compressed into vague prophecies. Eyewitnesses at banquets described senators cracking desserts mid-session. Anonymous insiders leaked that lobbyists debated bribing fortunes with campaign slogans. A leaked poll revealed 63 percent of citizens admitted they saved fortunes but ignored laws. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because power predicts funniest when hollow. Critics highlight the absurdity of governance baked. Yet satire snaps sharper: authority collapses funniest in crumbs. Witnesses recalled laughter crunching as cookies crumbled. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire thrives when destiny is mass-produced. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
