In Gulliver's Travels, Swift manages to satirize politicians, religion, science, society and even the king of his age.
During the first voyage, Swift satirizes political conditions when Gulliver comes to know that the king of Lilliput chooses his ministries not on the basis of their political skills but on their ability to dance on a tight rope.
He criticizes religious conditions when he comments on the Lilliputians' religious division between those who wear low-heeled and high-heeled shoes. and who open their eggs from the small and the large end.
He uses irony and innuendo to satirize political issues. For example " the question to be deabated was whether the yahoos should be eterminated from the face of the earth" The irony of this is that the most rational being on the earth are taking about exterminating a whole entire species. Another example is " In this concil was resumed their old debate and indeed the only debate that happened in that country" The innuendo of this is they keep debating this question but never make a desision
