<u><em>In my opinion, ironic and absurd are the adjective that characterize Vonnegut’s tone. Infact his novel’s black humor is built in a way to get to the absurd when, for example, he refers to the prisoners that in his point of view are similar to animals as “meat locker”.

<u><em>Otherwise the dialogue of Wild Bob is a clear example of the second one, he lost his soldiers in the battle. He had assured them that are many Germans dead that are praying God not to meet him and his soldiers, his words are a clear moment of absurdity when we realized that he lost his mind.

Answer:
B. Moctezuma demanded tributes and victimized his people.
Explanation:
From the passage, we discover that his people resented to his demands for tribute and victims of the religious sacrifices. Such resentment from his people weakened his conquest.
When any people are against their rulers, it is difficult for such ruler to enjoy freedom and exercise his authority. I believe this played out when the people began resenting Moctezuma.
He demanded tributes and victimized the people but that worked against him and made him a prisoner in his own palace.
