Nepal is in complete meltdown after the government’s insane decision to BAN the internet’s largest platforms under the excuse of fighting “misinformation.”
On September 4, 2025, Nepal’s ruling elites declared war on free speech, abruptly banning 26 social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, X, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Reddit, citing “failure to register” under new regulations, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists.
The heavy-handed ban backfired instantly. Thousands of angry young Nepalis, mostly Gen Z, poured into the streets.
For years, they’ve lived under corruption, poverty, and elite privilege. Now, with their digital lifeline severed, they erupted in rage.
What began as peaceful demonstrations escalated into an all-out youth rebellion on Monday and Tuesday.
Security forces, following the orders of the same corrupt politicians who shut down social media, responded with tear gas, rubber bullets, and even live ammunition. At least 19 protesters were killed and hundreds were wounded, according to The Guardian.
Enraged crowds began torching symbols of power across Kathmandu and beyond. Nepal’s Parliament was set ablaze as rioters stormed the compound.
