The used rhetorical device is Hyperbole.

Swift made an effort to challenge societal standards and overthrow the oppressive English government in "A Modest Proposal." Dreadful situations demand desperate measures to make one conscious. Satire is one of such techniques. There is no tolerance in satire.
The essay A Modest Proposal, which is disguised as an economic dissertation, suggests that Ireland's poverty be reduced by killing its underprivileged children and selling them to the English landowners as food.
Swift's proposal is a stinging indictment of England's illegal and economic abuse of Ireland. Its full title is A Modest Proposal for Making Children of Poor People Beneficial to the Public and Preventing Them from Being a Burden to Their Parents or the Country.
