  • Audience-Alienating Premise: An Author Tract that states we should let people die of starvation because... well, 'cause the environment, man, isn't going to be everyone's cup of tea. The fact that the premise has, at least so far, very much not been borne out doesn't help.
  • Strawman Has a Point: In The Story of B someone asks B why, if increasing food production simply causes population rates to rise as he claims, countries like Germany have zero population growth (others such as Japan actually have negative population growth). B basically says "If you look into this more, you'll see I'm right", with no actual answer then to something that refutes his entire claim.
