This is propaganda putting a "positive spin" on a negative story...
It's subtitled "Act of Kindness". While it is that for sure, I cannot image the ghoulishness of the people who write shit like this. This incident is a tragedy and should be portrayed as such.
If you go on subreddits like r/upliftingnews it's largely about these types of stories.
It boggles the mind of anyone who lives in a country where there is welfare. There's nothing inspiring or uplifting about someone spending their life savings to make life a bit less miserable for a while.
