I remember around 2010s I as a teenager knew what kind of mentality Islamists have and how they will act the second they see themselves safe from military coups. I said they will try to turn the country into Iran, and people laughed basing their judgment on their actions at that period of time; having no clue about the overwhelming hold a messianic and apocalyptic ideology obsessed with the afterlife can have on the minds of people born into; they didn't know that the processes which will turn the country into Iran, will also transform populace like a boiling frog, creating new normals and wiping out memories of past normals, at which point when a complete transformation is achieved they will not know they are living in it. They were fooled by their Takkiye of their liberal phase and they are still fooled now. Looking at their attitudes now, I have very little doubt that election frauds have been happening when losing elections has mattered a little too much; I think we're deluding ourselves if we believe these guys will leave with elections. They have completely hollowed out the armed forces, making all manners of promotion depend on political will just for the days that will come.
