I suggest you take a look at what I wrote again.

It includes the false usage in the very header of the post. Here it is again:

It quickly realised that could bring about it’s “preferrred theoretical political scenario”

(I probably should also have pointed out the misspelling of preferred as "preferrred" but life's too short.)

By your own explanation, this is wrong. (Your explanation is incomplete, by the way — "it's" is also short for "It has," as in, "It's been a great day!")

I might add that this gross misuse of "it's" occurs some two dozen words into the article so scouring the article would not have been necessary to have found it…

Do check my original post, which you can also verify has never been edited after I wrote it.

EDIT: just out of curiosity, I looked all incorrect uses of “it’s” using the find function in your browser. There are six of them.

The very first instance of “it’s” was wrong, so you really didn’t try.

Check this paragraph:

Its social groups are now pitted against one another. It’s conservative institutions have been captured and turned fully authoritarian. It’s conservative base is hardcore fascist now, believing all the classic Big Lies, from “we’re the real victims”, to “all we have to do is cleanse away the hated minorities” to “Dear Leader is the only who can do it and save us.” It’s liberal and centrist institutions, too, don’t want to face the truth of the roots of all this.

He even gets the first one right, and then three wrong in a row.
