At the end of 2010, Egypt had reached boiling point. What followed was a decade of upheaval - the toppling of Mubarak, democratic elections, a military coup, and the subsequent rollback of human rights - with a brutal crackdown on protesters. A decade later, has anything actually improved?

New capital, doubling size of the suez, has achieved 3% economic growth in accordance with IMF, I mean he’s also gotta deal with the Nile dam in Ethiopia, trying to upscale public transportation with the new train in Cairo. Can’t say he’s been ineffective and totally brutal. Unfortunately and I truly say UNFORTUNATELY, some societies aren’t capable of embracing democracy so willingly there’s too many cultural nuances

Ive been to Egypt twice 2019 and 2021. No one wants to talk about the Arab Spring and no one wants to mutter a word about Cisi but no one likes him at all. Everyone is really careful to not say anything against the government for they know what could happen. The revolutionaries here are brave and valiant. The world needs more so that change could be brought about. Good change. Egyptians are the most chilled people you will ever meet and they are kind and very hospitable.

There are so many dismissive comments, as if history has ended, this is the final outcome, and Al Sisi will rule till the end of times. A decade has passed, not really a huge span in terms of history. It is a testament to the courage and persistence of all the very very strong-willed, selfless and brave people that even such a repressive, brutal regime, with all its muscle and guns, has not been able to erase the spirit of dissent. And it is this never-yeilding spirit, this courage that inspires other ordinary people who gather together to protest other injustices in other countries. The "success" of mass movements, of revolutions, can not be measured in terms of immediate outcomes. The French Revolution descended into the Reign of Terror within a decade, and then gave way to Napoleonic dictatorship & empire, yet the ideals of equality, liberty, fraternity, and the Declaration of the Rights of the Man still inspire and guide movemwnts for democracy. So tell me, was the Frech Revolution successful? Or can it be dismissed as "some people died, nothing changed"?

@@pontchatrain Yes, "upending established hierarchies" is a big deal - that is how peoples of different regions have gained workers' rights, and civil rights', and womens' rights, and lgbtq rights' - by upending established hierarchies ... Also, being from a postcolonial country myself, I really am not much into the whole "once proud nations" of Europe thing, presuming you are referring to either the pre-Enlightenment era, or the colonial period - I'm not sure which, coz u have not specified anything except a vague critique of democracy as a bad form of government. My example of the French Revolution was exactly that, an example. You can replace it with any other Revolution or mass movement - from those of the "White" world e.g. The American Revolution, French Revolution, Irish Freedom Movement to other civil rights movements like suffragate, and women's lib movements in the 3rd world (to use a cold war term), the Civil Rights Movement under MLK, much later political struggles like Fight against Apartheid, the freedom struggles of erstwhile colonised nations to the recent protests in Hong Kong, the BLM movement, and the anti-coup movement going on in Myanmar this very moment. I was not even speaking about democracy in Europe post Enlightenment, or democracy as a form of govt in general either - I was talking about mass movements protesting against oppression. You seem to have fixated on the French Revolution. However, my original point was about the protests in Egypt during the Arab Spring and after, and even now under Al Sisi regime. And it came from a personal place I guess, because my country too is going through a far-right surge, like so many other countries in the world, with political figures becoming more authoritarian and the establishment becoming more intolerant of dissent, and when very ordinary people with ordinary will-power like me go and participate in demonstrations with the risk of being beaten up or injured, the examples of all these others who got together to resist oppression, gives courage and inspiration. And that is the legacy of the Arab Spring and other protest movements.

What I understood from middle eastern arab spring or any civil wars that in most there were so so many fractions of people who all participated but all had different will/wish to achieve after over throwing the govt. So, over throwing the existing problem didn't end the revolution but created one more and then oneore and then one more problem.

Main supporters of the Egyptian military dictatorship are: USA, israil, UAE and Saudi Arabia. The destruction this regime is bringing to Egypt is unimaginable. Each time I spoke with my fiance about the situation we had to be afraid something could happen to her family. The amount of people tortured to death in the prisons is just unimaginable. And if you think only Egyptians get treated this way, you haven't heard of the murder of Giulio Regeni. If you haven't, i encourage you to look it up, since this is what thousands of people in Egypt have to fear on a daily basis while 20% of the country is starving. Egypt is a beautiful place with beautiful people, anyone who has left the touristic areas and gotten to know the locals will know so. What is being done to this country is heartbreaking.

This series seems to be very selective so far in who they are interviewing. It appears to be a very educated, middle-class liberal elite as opposed to interviewing other factions which played and are playing arguably a more important role in the development of the Arab Spring revolutions, such as the Islamic, Falaheen, Syndicalist, etc factions. You have to remember Egypt is deeply religious with some 80 percent supporting implementing Sharia Law, 1/5 are illiterate and about 1/3 live below the poverty line. The revolution brought to the fore not only political divisions in Egypt but also cultural divisions (between urban elites and the countryside -Reef), between Islamic and secular such that secular factions were willing to have military intervention over accepting the democratic election of an Islamist and class divisions as well.

So Mohamed Morsi Whose been a president of Egypt for only 1 year before the military coup d'etat that took place in 3rd of July 2013 and even still had a supporters in Rab'aa Al-Adawia who got massacred later on August 14th of 2013 by the current Egyptian Government or 'military' regime ruled by El-sisi, plus Morsi whose been chosen by most of the Egyptian people in a more democratic way is still a dictator ? wow what a strange paradox.

Unfortunately Egypt do have a human rights problem, and it needs to be fixed. The government is extremely cautious and afraid of any possible upbringing against the regime, and why tho? It took the government years to achieve stability, and the economic reforms that the government started in the 2015 that shown to be very effective btw. The way I see it is that at the position we’re in right now, we can’t ask for everything, the people want better standards of living, stronger economy, better housing and a lot of things. Human rights will come later, but very soon. Long live Egypt
