I found it quite convincing, but most documentaries are, so I'm not sure
how much weight to place on that. Instead I try to focus simply on the one
piece of evidence presented, and ask what's more likely?

1. That this post was written as a reply by one person to another, or
2. Is it a post by the same person continuing their own thought, written by
someone who forgot what account they were logged in with.

I find I personally lean towards #2, but it's by no means an ironclad case.
I wouldn't strongly disagree with someone who believed #1.
