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

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?

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

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

If we colonized Mars, what would a human being from Mars be called? I’d assume Martian just as one from Earth is called an Earthling or Terran in the case of Sci-Fi media.

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

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