    b. the inability of rulers to accept change

    Explanation:

    It was a mockery of bourgeois ideals, a harsh satire on the existing society. The Lilliputian king is very reminiscent of the English King George I. Swift ridiculed inertness and hypocrisy. There is undoubted specificity of the addressees of the Swift merciless, caustic, murderous satire.
