As Musket pointed out. There is some politics and propaganda involved in some of those misconceptions, but I think most stem from lazy reporting and fiction writing.

Unfortunately, Wackers dear fellow (or fellowess - who's to know?), once again, as we English northerners tend to put it, you have shat in your own bed. Lazy reporting and fiction-writing is the precise description of the commentator's arrogant and ignorant verbiage in your original link. It's really sad that you can't see it. Not surprising, you being you, but still really sad.

As for your earlier "Pshaw" post, once again I should like to request a translator's note. Damned if I know what you're on about. Thank Christ you're not a scientist. :-)
