That's definitely the impression I get. It reminds me a lot of r/brasil around 2018 tbh - I wouldn't be surprised, if things were to go their way, that r/Peru will similarly lack an introspective gaze when Fujimori inevitably causes an even larger shitshow than the current political situation there
r/PERU has gone extremely mask off since the election on Sunday - not surprising at all but quite disturbing to see 'scratch a lib and a fash bleeds' so vividly in practice

'You're just a LOWLY elitist jazz major from a HIGH ACCEPTANCE college and an intellectual fraud. I am way smarter than you and know more than you. You are a self-centered idiot who thinks that this SubReddit should cater around himself and you're turning this SubReddit into only about politics, like you think you own the place. You don't. You do not contribute to this SubReddit, you make it a toxic place. You care nothing for the culture; you just only care to divide.'

This might be a crazy theory but I can't help but feel that this reaction is because the Centrist Dems know that, because of their reduced majority in the house, they will need to depend on DSA-endorsed members to pass bills without Republican support - and, consequently, the Centrists are trying to lay the foundations for continuing the odious notion of 'bi-partisanship'
