What positive events have taken place in your life over the past year?
I finally finished paying off my OSAP loan!!!
For those outside of Ontario they are student loans and the relief I have been feeling is just amazing.
When people talk about cancelling student debts itβs easy to feel like but I paid mine why should other people get theirs paid but honestly if we can find money to fund all these wars and trips to space I think we can find money to let people get educated for free.
I am proud that I have come to the realization that much of what occurs on social media is curated to get us angry and take no real action. It creates divisions between us based on race, age, gender and religion when we should be fighting together in this class struggle.
Itβs not enough that at every turn we are met with resistance in the labour movement but wages finally go up only for inflation to raise the cost of everything and leave us even further behind. We are told this is the way the economy works, it needs working people to be poor and to live pay check to pay check.
Iβm proud that I have realized that I will try my very best to not engage in spreading or emboldening hate as the only purpose it serves is to make others wealthy.
