Why is Reddit blocked by the Indonesian government?

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

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

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?

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

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

How can one determine if a K-pop star is truly talented? Why do some people assume that all K-pop stars are equally talented solely based on their fame without any evidence?
