I share this sentiment, I can't tell the posts linked in OP are lying. Though, the running theme in OP's posts is that of anecdotal evidence. This should always be taken with a grain of salt, even if the person on the other side isn't lying. People tend to exaggerate certain parts of their experiences to suit their world view, usually subconsciously, and neglect to share other parts. You can't really find much truth about a topic based on the experiences of a single person.
