Comment:

 Duplicate of #38774.

 This is one of the maaany specific issues, caused by a very broad design
 flaw — WP considers all post times to be in ''currently selected'' time
 zone, so any time zone change results in massively broken time data on all
 existing posts.

 These are inherently unfixable on individual level, until underlying
 design issue is addressed.
