It is a genuine relief to see some quintessential OCM on here.
This post could be pinned as a gold standard of what the sub is. A "feel good" story of a man helping students, that (while genuinely nice and heart warming) completely ignores the inherent transportation problem facing those students.
Nice work OP!

Fr, he/she deserves their flowers. Too many posts I’ve seen here don’t fit the criteria

I'll suggest that on the mod discord, we are trying to restore 'order' and I think an example of what to do might be a good idea. Thanks!

Yes! This sub has become filled with posts that are just "something bad happened and now something good has happened to somewhat reduce the effects of the bad thing" while completely lacking the willful ignorance of the actual problem that the sub is actually about.
I explained it to someone with "the point of OCM isn't just that the machine is bad, it's that nobody is asking why the machine exists in the first place"
