There's some strong sugar cane industry in FNQ. Also bear in mind that this instance is Australian so some context is assumed to be common-ish knowledge for the local reader.

Thought this could be interesting for FNQ.
It's across 16 countries so I'd think many (or most?) of the participants are covered by their respective public health systems. And it's not that they say they are looking for advice somewhere else but disregarding the medical advice.
I feel the opposite, that's the thing about feelings. The case in point, which is the post, is not about "all men".
You'll see lots of different people saying lots of different things. But as far a the post is concerned, nobody made that point.
Women saying that they don't feel safe in certain situations because they have no way to know if a guy will end up deciding to rape them is absolutely not the same as saying all men are rapists. They are clearly not, but saying "not all men" (which is an obvious thing) every time a woman expresses her frustration about having to be almost constantly alert just feels like a need to be more offended than worried about the rapey world we are living in.
It's the same kind of distraction as "all lives matter". We all know that all lives matter, but it's not about that.
I wish I wasn't on mobile because the whole thing needs much more nuance.
Maybe it's safe to assume he's a conservative but you'll be surprised at how many brocialists we have on the left.
why say it?
Who did?
Y'all
Who are you lumping me with?
you guys
I had a snarky answer but deleted it and am telling you sincerely to stop seeing "the others" as an undifferentiated blob because that brings you nowhere in a discussion and eventually it will harm the way you see the world.
"Men are rapists" was nobody's point, "men are rapists" is the strawman on which "not all men" relies.

I don't know a lot about the genre but I love Cranes, who apparently happen to be shoegaze.

There are plenty of timber houses in FNQ already, and plenty of termites; I don't see why the new material would be more appealing to them.
