Answer:

It satirizes the reluctance of us to protest or reject the barbaric, outdated practices, traditions that we still adhere to in the name of civilization and preserving one's traditions.

Explanation:

The story satirizes a number of social issues, like people's reluctance to reject outdated traditions, ideas, laws and practices. It also satirizes the Nazi regime during World War II. Hitler's rule killed millions of people deemed to be a hindrance to the Germans. The similarity with the story of "The Lottery" is that neighbors simply watched as their friends and neighbors were captured and killed. They did nothing to prevent or save them from the killings. This un-meaningful death of the people is a result of us not challenging the negative and immoral authority of the powerful ones.
