Gobsmacked

Imagine that you're rewriting American history in order to whitewash slavery. If you had unmitigated gall, you might write something like this:

As we were building this shining city on a hill, we realized we couldn't do it alone. So we invited our dear friends from Africa to join us. 

That's how severe the lies are in The Fantasy Bond, where Bob describes The Environment (aka The Friendship Circle) in great detail. 

Having already gone through this exercise with the Ethics book, I thought I knew what was coming. Oh boy was I ever wrong. The extent and the specificity of the bullshit is something to behold. If this entire blog was devoted to unraveling the lies in that one chapter, I'd still be scratching the surface. I need to figure out how to approach it succinctly...
