The Invention of Positive Trolling

Easier to troll someone’s emotions, than it is to convince someone they’ve been manipulated. We need to embrace the idea that we are manipulated a thousand times a day, before we can perfect methods to resist information manipulation. That’s why I invented Positive Trolling.

The paradox at the heart of Infolklore: trolling emotions is easier than convincing people they’ve been trolled. Therefore, the solution is not to stop trolling but to troll POSITIVELY. Positive Trolling was first trademarked on Medium on February 11, 2021, two years before Disinfolklore was coined.
