    Lol, the election was between two social conservatives

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fujimorism#Ideology

    Fujimorism is characterized by its social conservatism. In March 2017, for example, Popular Force blocked an investigation into alleged sexual abuse within the Catholic church using the justification that it was only intended as an attack on religion.

    Peru has a long way to go, Castillo is huge progress. Very easy for Global North critics to ignore the reality that social progress is a privilege.
