Vonnegut most cleary creates irony in Harrison Bergeron by Option C. Hazel is of average intelligence while George is above average intelligence.

Explanation:

This story is about the irony of forced equality. Hazel is the one who is free from any government controls or monitoring ("handicaps") because she is already average in intelligence and in her physical appearance.
