Why is Reddit blocked by the Indonesian government?

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

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

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

What are some other ways to respond to someone saying "thank you" besides "de rien" or "vous êtes bienvenue"?

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

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)

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

In what ways is modern day Russia similar to the USSR? How does it differ from the USSR in terms of culture and politics?

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

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

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

Ancient Protein Breaks Biological Rules by Working in a Mirror World - SciTechDaily

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

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

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

How do you feel about Labour MPs blaming the Tories for leaving them with difficult decisions regarding the winter fuel allowance cut?

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

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

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)

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?
