Did AMLO "re create" or "rebuild" the PRI system or is that just a thing ppl say in the internet?
Idk much about the situation, I remember him winning Mexico City mayorality at year 2000 as PRD, and then he acted like Trump did after the 2006 election, people called him petrosocialist he got painted with same brush, as other Latin american leaders at that era, like Chavez, Morales, Lula, idk how accurate that is with time.

MORENA is nowhere close to recreate the "perfect dictatorship" of the old PRI. It is true, however, that it has absorbed many of the PRI machines and most of their voterbarse, and there are genuine concerns about the use and abuse of clientelism. But the latter is really no different from what literally every other Mexican party does (including what PAN did during its 12 year rule) and the accusations you can find on the internet saying that MORENA is Mexican MAGA and that they are going to end democracy are objectively deranged.
At the end of the day, Mexican politics are what they are and while it is disappointing that MORENA ended up the same as any other party but with a "populist left" coat, they are electorally dominant because they are genuinely popular with the population, not because of antidemocratic machinations or whatever.
