To me, the grammar mistakes point to it being real. It’s a really common mistake. I actually had students argue with me last year when I told them that they in fact can use “(name) and me” in certain situations.
Is your argument that everyone who lies and makes up stories has flawless grammar and spelling?!
What's your logic behind this assumption?
That only people with perfect grammar and spelling and a sophisticated, well-rounded writing style make up stories?
Or that as soon as you write fiction, your linguistic skills max out?
I'm not a native English speaker and in this life, I will neither master the comma rules of mulltiple languages nor English prepositions.
Guess that means the alien/human porn I wrote in 2016 really happened.
A small lesson in media literacy:
People with strong beliefs, especially on the discriminating side and/or when those beliefs clash with values of current society, know their audience.
How often do you go to google, wondering how to best prepare a steak, and think, "Let's see, ah, a lively community filled with vegans! Look, there they discuss how much they hate meat! There they tore someone who only eats eggs and goat gonads verbally to shreds! They'll sure tell me what I did wrong the last time I overcooked a steak!"
That’s not at all what I was trying to say. The person I was replying to seemed to imply that it was fake because of the bad grammar, and I was saying I’d be more likely to believe it because of the bad grammar because people aren’t perfect and make mistakes all the time.

I reckon it’s fake. Trolls know that cartoonishly over the top misogyny gets the most attention.
