As robot pointed out, the killing never stopped- the US killed approximately a third of the population of North Korea, dropping more bombs on that part of the peninsula than on all of Europe in WW2.
Elected politicians are beholden to the people, so they can’t go around killing all of their voters.
Conveniently, the millions of people killed and displaced by Americas warmongering don’t get a fucking vote lol.
I mean the killings stopped after the cease fire that ended the fighting in the Korean War if not the war itself. Yeah, it seems like America was over inclusive on what were military targets in the Korean War.

Yes, if you’re not in a democracy you don’t get a vote. I don’t get the practicality of being completely anti-war. Wars are an inevitable part of human society. Atrocities committed in war don’t undermine the value of democracy. In fact, I would argue that democratic societies experience fewer atrocities because their governments are beholden to the people and do not have absolute power.

The reality is because you’re too busy inflicting them on everyone else, and to people it’s socially acceptable to hate within in your society (criminals, homeless people, ethnic minorities).

muh human nature, pay no attention to the material conditions behind the curtain
I don’t think it is social acceptable to hate people. But as far as I’m concerned what you’re saying is a non sequitur.
Lol, because the USSR and China never got involved in wars, okay. Communism doesn’t prevent wars and in fact the scarcity of resources communists societies generate would probably cause wars.
