For example:
[date=2019-06-05 timezone="America/Toronto" timezones="Africa/Cairo|America/Toronto|UTC"]
2019-06-05T04:00:00Z
shows up in preview and baked for me as:
UTC is not 52h in the future for me 
(it’s 4h ahead)
AI-generated summary
The discussion is about an issue with Local-dates, where dates show days in the future. supermathie reported the issue and provided an example of the problem, where the timezones displayed are not the ones specified in the timezones attribute. zogstrip confirmed the issue and found the problem to be a mutation of the same dateTime object when generating previews, causing a discrepancy. This issue has been fixed in a commit to the Discourse repository (https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/c131903e56227ce76f649cc24d327f640ae843e7).

We were mutating the same dateTime object when generating the previews (ie. the date ranges in the tooltip), thus creating a discrepancy in the space time continuum
