> Maybe ask a few South Koreans about that?

Like who, the hundreds of civilians the US massacred at No Gun Ri ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Gun_Ri_massacre )? Or all the other civilians shot and bombed by the US Air Force, as internal documents and testimony attest to? Or the firebombing of cities by the US air force? Or the rapes and murders US military personnel have carried out in South Korea in the past decades? Or the decades of dictatorship in South Korea that the US military occupation shored up?

Might I ask if you're South Korean, or familiar with how much worse things have generally been in the DPRK?

Reminder: South Korea was a dictatorship into the late 1980s.

Quite true. OTOH, North Korea was also a dictatorship then. And still is today.

You don’t have to go overseas to ask questions like this.

Millions of Americans suffer everyday from poverty, homelessness and not having access to healthcare.

We spread the shit within our own borders too.

Looking at the candidates for the next election actually scares me. It’s not good.
