Share photos and video, but stay safe. (CNN) -- Egyptians swarmed Cairo's Tahrir Square Tuesday, seeking to revive a democratic groundswell that swept the country's former strongman from power nearly two years ago and to demand that the man they chose to replace him respect their wishes. Protesters waved flags and banners, chanted slogans and called on President Mohamed Morsy to roll back his decree on presidential powers or resign. The crowd included many different Egyptian factions, including Western-style liberals, secularists, moderates and women's rights activists.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
