"The lady left her door open, how was I supposed to know she wanted to keep her furniture? What's wrong with these stupid cops who say I can't take the TV?"
This is some serious gaslighting.
Dysfunction is normal. Teams that are unproductive because of problems, i.e. 'the vehicle is stuck in the mud' are expected. To the extent the problem is known, there's at least some attempt to redress the issue, then obviously people are going to be aware of the lack of productivity, and it is what it is - these things happen.
And it's understandable if someone doesn't want to stick around, that's a legit reason to move on.
But that's a very different thing than people who are expected to do things - who do not do them because they can obfuscate and lie about their situation.
"name-calling and accusations of bad faith don't really serve anyone in the end."
Fraud is Fraud. It's not 'name calling'.
The OP has put lying about how much he does literally in the title of the post.
It's not 'bad faith' to indicate that his lying is inappropriate, and it's frankly repulsive the lengths that people seem willing to go to support someone who wants to admittedly lie about their work and get away with it.

it reads to me like the op is doing some introspection and making use of self-deprecating hyperbole in the process while looking to recruit thoughts from others about general trends in the industry.
if i were to make the same sorts of bad faith assumptions that you are, i could come back with a very simple:
"what if this whole posting is just astroturf for someone looking to make a quick buck by instilling productivity fears in insecure leaders so that they may sell more remote worker monitoring creepware?"
but i don't honestly believe that, because assumptions of bad faith, straw man arguments and gotcha style microquoting are not constructive.
