Regardless of what contract says, you can quit any time. No contract under law can force you to work out any specific time. You do not owe your company any specific amount of time because slavery was abolished a little while ago already.
Even contracts that say that “your company paid you a sign-on bonus that you have to re-pay if you leave within a year” are questionable. See https://qr.ae/pyIrpO .
You do not owe it to your family and friends to stay there. In a few months when uproar will be massive and public, you will be seen as an early hero. (See case of Hinton.)
If you work there, it means you are so smart that you will easily get a job elsewhere (maybe for less pay, I admit). I will personally help you find a job if you have any trouble.
How to quit: It is very easy. Send an email to your direct manager OR HR:
Subject: Resigning effective immediately
Body:
Dear (name of your manager or HR person).
I hereby resign from my position effective immediately.
I wish you all the very best and remain your loyal friend.
And some practical advice on quitting.
