    I don’t understand why so many people are eager to (metaphorically) scream “FAKE!!!” at every story (that isn’t highly unlikely) told on the internet. Sure, maybe, but does it even matter? Odds are good something like this did happen somewhere.

        Yes, and the difference is that facts show they are incorrect. False equivocation. “Man sells house after losing job” is not even remotely equal to “Haitians eat peoples’ pets.”
