Why is Reddit blocked by the Indonesian government?

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

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)

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?

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

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

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
