Why is Reddit blocked by the Indonesian government?

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

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

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)

Do you as a gay male enjoy the feeling of getting a penis in your anus?

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

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

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?

What’s the craziest thing you’ve heard pretending to be asleep?

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)

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

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

Can Donald Trump use the Alien Friends Act of 1798 to give ALL illegal immigrants an ultimatum: You have 1 month to leave America, after which you will be arrested and jailed for 3 years?

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

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

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

Nvidia CEO Pays Tribute To Late Nintendo President Satoru Iwata In New Switch 2 Video - Kotaku

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

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

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

If I only have a fire extinguisher to defend myself against some threat from people, should I spray them for max damage or just hit them with the fire extinguishers?

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

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