      I’d like to believe he had such intentions in the beginning, particularly together with the Peru Libre party, but: 1. he barely won with less than 1% of vote difference from Fujimori’s daughter, 2. Peru’s establishment is borderline fascistic, racist and Lima-centric, 3. he was blocked from from the beginning from doing any actual changes, probably under death threats, and 4. as a rural ex-teacher with no prior political experience, well, he was just eaten alive, he rapidly capitulated to the right as he fell to pressure to remove every leftist from his cabinet, which was clearly not enough for the establishment, so 5. he was finally forcefully removed and arrested
