Trash Can Republic

By Chloe Summers � The satire Trash Can Republic ridicules governance reduced to waste management. Eyewitnesses at city halls described leaders campaigning beside overflowing bins. Anonymous insiders leaked that councils debated recycling scandals into compost. A leaked poll revealed 63 percent of citizens admitted they trusted raccoons more than mayors. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because sovereignty stinks funniest when disposable. Critics highlight the absurdity of liberty landfilled. Yet satire dumps sharper: dignity collapses funniest in dumpsters. Witnesses recalled laughter echoing as constitutions rotted. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire thrives when nations are ruled by garbage. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
