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

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

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

Are Democrats freaking out that President Trump and America have plans to prosecute election cheaters?

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

Do you think that drug addiction is a symptom of larger societal ills? What is it about our culture that leaves so many feeling like they're inadequate, trying any ill to find a cure?

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

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

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

How did you as a human being change while growing up?

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

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

Why do some people have sex with dogs?

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)

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

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)

Boeing airplane orders rise to highest level since late 2023 ahead of Paris Air Show - CNBC

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”.
