Literally no one is doing that. There was no excuses or apologies made for sexual assault taking place in other places. There was no “minimizing” the fact that it happens elsewhere. You are perceiving a slight from nothing, or at best a short post of exasperation that it happened again.
Just because I’m not aware of it also doesn’t make the original post from False any less unexpected, I acknowledge my own ignorance but the point still stands. If it becomes known enough world-wide that Australia does indeed have a rampant SA problem that it become associated with the country as part of it’s “culture”, then it won’t be any weirder to so a “Sigh, Australia…” when an article comes up talking about it.
Australia doesn’t have a well known problem with groping women on public transit as far as I’m aware.
Ahhh, that sucks to hear. It seemed like such a nice place while there, but I guess that’s benefits of tourism. All of the cool parts, not around long enough for the bad :(
