How did Nepal’s ‘Discord revolution’ spark so quickly and bring in
a new national leader chosen by online poll? On the 8th of
September, a group of young Nepali gathered in Kathmandu to protest
a social media ban they saw as a heavy-handed crackdown against an
anti-corruption movement. A week later, the government has fallen,
more than 70 people lie dead after protests were infiltrated by
violent groups and the government responded with lethal force, and
Nepal has a new Prime Minister, herself nominated via social media.
