Voltaire vs. Swift

Which celebrated 18th century satirist do you prefer?

Personally, I prefer Voltaire due to his work being in many ways more charming than Swift's and actually making me laugh.

You're fucktarded. Swift started his career at the Examiner as a Whig, but when he started running with Pope and Arbuthnot, he turned conservative.

I hope you are not white for the sake of your belief system. You're certainly not smart whatever your race.

Definitely Voltaire. Cunning, edgy, and with a wicked sense of humor

Swift, would rather be without the insipid Manichean preaching of Candide

Goldsmith and Burke, Swift and the Bishop of Cloyne
All hated Whiggery; but what is Whiggery?
A levelling, rancorous, rational sort of mind
That never looked out of the eye of a saint
Or out of drunkard's eye.
