" 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?

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

You're saying every single Nepalese zoomer was in that discord?

150000 of them were there but is the alternative is to individually ask every single person in few hours what they think?

The candidates were chosen from thousands of people, and from the candidate the final representative was chosen collectively, There was very little dissent from people since even the other potential candidates recommend her instead.

you can't say 'Gen-Z' voted for it as a whole, it was only the ones in that discord that did

i know the name is confusing. it is a bad name but that is what we are stuck with. But it also gave up a very particular impression and the current situation is handled entirely by the youth. 'Gen-Z' is the name of the movement now and everyone is involved. Most prominent section being gen-z people.

Also what was stopping people in other countries joining and voting?

yeah if they could have managed to understand what was happening, where and when and how in few hours. but not even i knew there was a vote until it happened. but i still do not argue against that process because it is what was needed. Nepal army wanted our representative in a day so had to adapt. and even if i did not agree with decision made, democratic centralism is an old concept.
