It should be mentioned that Sakhawi did take photos for reports published in newspapers tied to the movement. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">For many months, his lawyers reported that he is being tortured and that he even tried, twice, <\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=eaqokrwpvwg\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">to commit suicide<\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> while in detention. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">According to several reports, he is being held in one of the maximum-security military prisons in the country. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">About a month ago, his detention was <\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MadaMasr\/status\/1020704096355958785?utm_source=Project+on+Middle+East+Democracy+-+All+Contacts&amp;utm_campaign=ef002f0e15-Egypt_Daily_Update_Sept_28_2017_COPY_01&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=0_75a06056d7-ef002f0e15-215955657&amp;mc_cid=ef002f0e15&amp;mc_eid=5100374326\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">extended<\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> by additional 45 days.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">As one would expect, these steps have generated a great deal of negative publicity. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The Egyptian regime, nevertheless, claims that these steps are necessary for preserving the stability of the state. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Indeed, since coming to power, Sisi has spared no effort to quash and prevent any popular mobilization, on the ground or online.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Despite this, one of the prominent hashtags in the Egyptian Twittersphere over recent weeks has been #Irhal_Ya_Sisi, meaning \u201cSisi, get out\u201d &#8211; a clear reference to the popular protest movement in Egypt in 2011, in which protesters used the same slogan, but directed it at Egypt&#8217;s President at the time, Hosni Mubarak.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">One of the significant differences between this online protest campaign and the public anger expressed on Egyptian social media in recent years is anonymity. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Tens of thousands of users on social media used this hashtag in their posts, and the overwhelming majority were careful and chose to write anonymously, at times even opening special accounts dedicated to this. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">This was done to evade the social media monitoring tools deployed by the Egyptian regime.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Another apparent difference in the messaging on Egyptian social media is the lack of political identification of the users. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The overthrow of President Mohammed Morsi in 2013 divided Egyptian society into two: supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood on the one hand, and their fervent opponents on the other. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Egyptian authorities labeled the Muslim Brotherhood as \u201cenemies from within,\u201d and did everything in their power to exclude them from the public discourse. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">At the same time, Egyptian authorities labeled any opposition to the regime as indicative of support for the Islamist movement.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The current campaign against Sisi reflects ongoing frustrations of large swaths of the Egyptian public, whether they are Muslim Brotherhood supporters, or opponents of the Islamist values \u200b\u200bof the movement. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The photos shared by Egyptian users on their accounts do not indicate affiliation with any movement, and the narratives of the different parties and factions in the country are absent. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Naturally, however, the supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood are trying to exploit this societal displeasure to lambast Sisi.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/upload\/editor\/Dj6zTiQUYAcB1xp.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The poster listing Sisi&#8217;s failings shared on social media<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">For example, one <\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/khello100\/status\/1026454931438530560\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">poster<\/span><\/span><\/a><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> that was shared thousands of times carried the headline &#8220;Sisi lies and does not respond.&#8221;
