The people of the DPRK support the system they have, whether it truly has a dictator or not. To overthrow their system by force, ie what the US did in Iraq, would be greatly opposed by the people of the DPRK and yet again the US would end up slaughtering hundreds of thousands of Korean civilians, just like they did in the 50s.
Lifting the sanctions and embargo would dramatically improve their conditions, all the embargo has done is starve people to death during particularly harsh periods, like the Arduous March in the 90s when the Soviet Union, the DPRK’s primary trading partner, dissolved. It isn’t showing any chances of hurting the legitimacy of the DPRK’s government, it’s purely to torture the Korean People into opening up their economy so the US can loot and pilliage it like it did to Iraq.
Estimates on the exact distribution of millitary vs Civilian deaths are not known, though millions died in total. That’s just from direct involvement in the war, and not the results of sanctions and embargo or other inflicted terror. I use “hundreds of thousands” because it’s
Undeniably correct, even with bourgeois sources alone, and
Still gets across the sheer brutality of the US’s genocide on Korea
It’s quite possible that civilian casualties do reach the millions, especially if you include the South Koreans killed by the US and the ROK government in areas like Jeju Island.
I think the best thing for the people of North Korea is to not force them to live under a brutal dictator.

I thought the US killed millions, not 100,000s?
