An anti-corruption movement in Nepal, led by Gen Z, was organized on social media platforms like Discord. The groups, under the banner “Youth Against Corruption,” served as a command and control center for demonstrations. Messages posted included calls for violence, with one reading, “I want a machine gun.” Protesters on the ground stormed and set ablaze the parliament, torched the residence of then-Prime Minister KP Sharmauli, and forced ministers to flee in helicopters. The movement, coordinated through platforms like Discord, Instagram, and TikTok, ultimately led to the resignation of the Prime Minister. A bizarre trend saw young protesters recording social media reels against backdrops of the violence. Now, an online poll on Discord is being used to select the nation’s future leadership. #nepal #nepalprotests #genz #discord #socialmediarevolution #youthagainstcorruption #anticorruption #digitalprotest #tiktok #instagram #politics #worldnews #southasia #youthpower #revolution
