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.

The US legalized same sex marriage even though it hasn't dealt with gun violence, police brutality, systemic racism, etc.

This idea that countries can only focus on one issue at a time is beyond absurd. This may surprise you, but governments have different divisions which deal with different issues. In Mexico's case, the Ministry of defense or the military have -nothing- to do with who gets married. Crazy that you need to be told this.
