    Opposing war doesn’t equate to supporting a dictator.

    You literally have no argument.

      The user they’re replying to is a tankie. Dictator support is baked into the ideology.

      Yes it does, when the war you’re opposing is one intended to bring consequences to a dictator. Unopposed dictators continue to dictate and empower other dictators. You don’t stop a bully by turning the other cheek. That just gets you punched in both sides of the face. You stop a bully by bringing them consequences to their actions. When there are no consequences, the actions continue.

        Literally nowhere in any of my responses have I alluded to me being an absolute pacifist. In fact, one of my replies implies that I’m not, I’m just against war (because, you know, it’s fucking atrocious for all involved), because you can absolutely oppose the act of war while still being down for some violence yourself.

      My argument is they should have been shot.

      The weak little dictator isn’t going to get into a shooting match with the South over a couple of dead soldiers.

      If you think they will then you know nothing of the history.

        killing two soldiers doesn’t solve anything. They should invade north korea and fill it with a thousand McDonalds. Its the only way to restore freedom™
