    Indonesia is an islamic country, and islam is very anti women, homosexuals, and trans people. In fact, there’s not a single islamic country that’s pro any of these groups.

    Friendly reminder that Indonesia is absolutely fucking huge, with a population only 2/3 of the US.

    If you think truth social and right wing propaganda is bad in America, in Indonesia it’s 10x worse trust me. They have it down to a fine art.
