Why is Reddit blocked by the Indonesian government?

Indonesians tend to be Mr./Mrs. Know-It-All, they think they know everything by either only reading some articles on Wikipedia, reading some books, searching some topics on Google, and watching some videos on social media, or they think they know everything because they’re alumni of SOHK (School of Hardknocks) a.k.a. anecdotal knowledge/”trust me, bro!”. Oh, did i mention if Mr./Mrs. Know-It-All can’t stop and shut up?

Indonesians can’t do civil discussions both offline and online. That’s why Indonesians are perceived as “digital barbarians” by Microsoft

Indonesian didn’t know where, when, and why they should joking and where, when, and why they should be serious (a.k.a. they’re joking in a serious discussions, but at the same time, they’ll be offended by some harmless jokes)

Why do Americans and foreigners alike describe the USA as prudish? Why do I see nothing prudish about the USA society? USA feels like one of the loosest countries although Americans claim to be very reserved.

r/atheism, r/agnostic → This breaks first Pancasila principles, since Indonesians confusing “deity” with “religion”

Indonesians didn’t know what “agree to disagree” is

Indonesians tend to be a moral police (yes, we’re talking about you, “Facebook Reporting Communities” such as IReC and Garuda Reporting which tarnishes Indonesia’s name across the globe, and yes, we’re talking about you, too, SJWs)

What is the best/cute/funny/playful chat/conversation between brother and sister?

r/AntiNatalism → Since Indonesians believe in “banyak anak, banyak rezeki” (more child, more prosperous) principle

And let me give you the bitter truth about Indonesian demographics:

Instead of debating, Indonesians prefer to shut their opponent down: dox, cancel, ad hominem, name calling, spewing fallacies, you name it

Google’s Gemini AI will summarize PDFs for you when you open them - The Verge

r/AsianParentStories → Because Indonesia is still Asia, and Asia has a common patriarchal culture called “filial piety”

Some subreddits are controversial for Indonesians, more than just porn nonsense

Indonesian loves to use Bahasa in international communities, and their own local language in national communities

Why is it so common for married white women to have an affair with black men? Does it bother white guys?

r/misanthropy → Since Indonesians are overly friendly, humanistic according to second Pancasila principles

Look at Kaskus (an Indonesian tryhard Reddit clone) which become a cesspool of so-called “free speech”.

Indonesians don’t even know what BNBRBK (Be Nice, Be Respectful, and Be Kind) principle is

If English makes 3 additional gender terms to accommodate for XXX, XXY, and XYY people, what would be the most realistic terms for those genders?

Indonesians are attention seekers, they often giving “off-topic” comments or posts, or they often baiting (race-baiting, rage-baiting, jail-baiting) just for fun

Because Indonesians are not smart enough for accepting free speech inside Reddit
