Answer:
Fact: State Security clearance was required for government appointments
Statistics : 40% of Egyptians lived below the poverty line.
Explanation:
Revolution 2.0 is a chronological record of the uprising that occurred in Egypt in Jan 2011. The uprising led to the toppling of the then government led by Hosni Mubarak.
The fact used as evidence was that state security approval was sought and granted before anyone could hold any senior position in government or politics. The government achieved this by keeping a dossier - a record of activities- on everyone considered a threat or an activist, which was used to blackmail them in case they decided to raise a dissenting voice.
This control measure was used to ensure that no one in senior position of authority would had enough clout to lead a revolt or revolution.
The statistics was that 40% of Egyptians lived below the poverty line. Hence poverty was used as a weapon in oppressing and subjugating the people.
