Reddit is a western American site while western hegemony exists. There’s always a reason for the global south to block western sites/companies

Sure - the reason is the want more control over their people, they want to surveil them (hence blocking Signal), they want them to only read or express "correct" texts and prevent them from participating in open loosely-moderated discussions (hence blocking Reddit).
Wouldn't want comrades to get cooties from reading icky things?
