Why is Reddit blocked by the Indonesian government?

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

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

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

What is one small habit that has transformed your life in unexpected ways?

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)

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

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

What is one thing nice you did for someone today or something they did for you?

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

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

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

Webb telescope detects water vapor on a planet outside the solar system smaller than Neptune - Earth.com

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

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

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?

Atheists, there is a god up there in heaven and he loves you so much that he sent his son to die the worst death imaginable and then to turn into a zombie all to save you from sin. Why do you reject him?

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”

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

Rock Icon, 78, Hauled Off Stage in Jaw-Dropping Concert Farewell - Yahoo

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

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