I wonder what the truth is. Right-wing elitists resenting and undermining a grass roots president, or left-wing elitists trying to force their agenda.

Police generals

I'm a total lefty, but Castillo tried to dissolve the parliament and rule by decree. Plus he's not leftist in the way you Western folks think he is (he's very conservative and opposes same sex marriage and what they call "gender ideology" in conservative contexts).

Fuck him and fuck our (Mexican) president for perpetuating shitty Latin American autocracy that disguised as leftist politics.

Nothing wrong with police generals. —Lt Col Big Anxiety, County Sanitation Department

You know

I mean the left wing parties voted against Castillo too. The Parliament has issues of course but a 101-6 vote speaks for itself.

In Perú the police is a national entity. It’s official name is Policía Nacional, and they report all the way up to the central government, not local entities. The also have a similar rank like the military. So yeah… they have Generals. Weird.
