Instead of being a unique event, it might just be one of the first. All the ‘strange event’ are just the things we noticed from previous color revolution. But that does not make those revolution any ‘less’ revolution for the people. People from surrounding countries being inspired and imitating such revolution is not really surprising event.

Using instagram to organize, discord to discuss and Facebook to share also seem less weird if looking from the perspective of Gen z. They are using the tools available to them to achieve their goal, unaware about the dangers inherent to such tools.

Just overthrow the government when they are sleeping lol

Nepal Army might have been the only capable institution and the only one to suffer no damage. They were and are the most respected institution even now.

Executive, Legislative and Judiciary structure all were target to some extend. So military was forced to intervene and could have absolutely taken power (on pretense of temporary solution) but instead immediately approached the disorganized masses to ask for our representative. That was a major reason for the quick formation of a unified front since we had one day to present our representative. The use of discord was also for same reason. Everything was moving very fast and we used tools that were immediately available to us

There are not really reliable sources available, even the Nepali media feels off

I only trust news from three sources for now

1. Nepal Army
2. Gen-Z movement official channel (fb, insta, discord)
3. RONB - fb page

There are steps being planned to get off discord. The lightning fast development had prevented any immediate influence from foreign power but the flood of bot account has started. Now all invite links are temporarily disabled and just the current insulated server should be fine for a while.

Yes I also hope for the best here, but just being some form of inspiration for youth worldwide is fine for me.

Getting co-opted by NGOs and turning into pro-western, liberal state is not really a downgrade from before since that was the situation before the revolution.

Nepal has been a playing field for US and India, and with the increasing influence of US (accepting MCC by govt) things were bound to explode.

Every surrounding counties are getting unstable, and just being done with whole thing feels peaceful now. the government being. overthrown by people’s movement is such a relief since the alternative movement was going to be pro-Monarchy. there is a hope for left now, a leftist revolution overthrowing the ‘Nepal Communist Party - United Marxist-Leninist’ was just not possible.

Yeah but it is difficult to find anyone who do not have any direct affiliation to the big parties, capacity to bring stability, conduct election and then be disallowed from running in that election.

It is not like there aren’t any of them but their affiliation with existing party (even principle communist) will be viewed with suspicion for now. Example - current MP from Juche party is also good, but they should be focusing on the formation of next government instead of the current interim one.

it was on the verge of collapse, i had to listen in from youtube. People were live streaming the talk in other platforms which got more viewers than discord chat

our current demands have been met, thank you

discord invite

How the vote happened

got separate post on the voting process + more

current server size is 160,000

" We’ve experienced a sudden surge of bot accounts, attempting to flood into the server. To protect our community, all invite links have been temporarily disabled while we tighten security measures and clear out the bots. "

looking for alternative platform now. Discussion about creating it from scratch but that might be unfeasible for now. Any alternative available that might work?

Hey we interpret it as burn the rich, steal their shit

Yeah that was her weak point, her being appointed by the political party was seen suspicious.

But again both the Maoist and Nepali Congress went after her due to her judgment on few high profile corruption cases and she was not supported by any party then. Was kinda forced to give up that position.

We chose her because there were not many that good candidate, and we wanted to save the better ones for the election since the current head of Interim government can not be part of it.

Wasting a popular candidate for faster stability and quick election but only for 6 month vs choosing less popular candidate for now (she got full support for our reprepresentative but do no think most people knew about her before 2 days ago when her name came up as another candidate during consideration) and saving the ‘better’ one for entire term which is 5 years.

Subedi is the husband of the current PM, but the mastermind behind the hijacking has been elected PM long ago already.

Elects 73yo

Since its temporary (6 month) , and the current interim PM can not run for next election so skipped over the most popular candidate. Yes that is him.

Subedi is best known for his role in Nepal’s first aircraft hijacking in 1973

“Then a youth leader of the Nepali Congress, Subedi led a three-member team in a 1973 hijacking masterminded by Girija Prasad Koirala — who would later serve four terms as Nepal’s prime minister — to raise funds for an “armed struggle” against the monarchy under King Mahendra.” Source

Yes the movement is getting to true to its name. I am afraid some are using chatGPT to interpret constitution.

There are constitution experts and lawyers involved in discussion to correct it at least.

Things are going according to the movement’s demand.

She was chosen by the people to conduct election in time

The Nepali Parliament has been dissolved and the interim prime minister is going to be Sushila Karki.
