English Lords as well as known as Wealthy English Protestants are being targeted negatively by Swift.

Answer: Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

"A modest proposal" is written by Jonathan Swift who was an Anglo Irish essayist and a poet. It is a satirical pamphlet. The main purpose of writing this was to bring forward to the readers the social class inequality and the abuses inflicted by wealthy English protestants on the Irish Catholics.

Even though the author directly betake the Irish government but indirectly he lays out the quibble of England who are still exploiting Ireland, even hundred years after the Anglo Irish conflict that left Ireland in ruins by them.
