⚡️Dark prince gives begging child a Mercedes
It’s generous, sure (generosity is the first test in the Code of Positive Trolls™️).
Ethically disciplined, provided prince owns the car (second test).
Fails the ‘Patience’ test - prince is teaching child to beg and pay homage, rather than to work for salvation.
‘Joyous Perseverance’ (the fourth test in the Code of Positive Trolls™️) is not triggered, nor is the fifth (Focus).
Sixth and final test with which to proof a story for its Disinfolklore attributes is: Insight / Wisdom.
Prince and the story fails this test miserably.
Wise prince would have offered child a teaching on the wisdom of seeking salvation in material possessions.
Incidentally, once in Banjul, capital of Gambia, I debated with a child over whether or not it would be right for me to give him my Walkman headphones as he had begged me to.
“If I gave you a Mercedes,” I said to the child. “And then you crashed it, and died, would that have been a good gift.”
His response, quick as a flash, almost prompted me to handover my Walkman immediately: “If Allah says it’s time to die, then that is right.”
That was twenty-three years ago.
Here instead of merely lecturing the child as I did, albeit using the Socratic method, the Saudi Prince could have offered to pay for the begging child’s education. Instead, he gives the child a car.

Recall (👇🏾) : Any story whose Mana (meaning/energy) that fails any or all six tests in the Code of Positive Trolls™️ is Disinfolklore.
P.S. RadCentrism’s story, however, is Counter Disinfolklore (https://www.disinfolklore.net/p/counter-disinfolklore). Passes all six tests.
