Edit: it just occurred to me that this premise is based upon the idea that no Tyranical Government that I know of has been displaced through entirely peaceful means, if anyone has an example of one, it would be much appreciated.

Well, Libya, and that's why Kim brought it up. Gaddaffi disarmed, handed over power, did everything we could've asked for, and then we invaded him anyway because of what he did 20 years earlier/because the Muslim Brotherhood wanted to and we trusted them? Unclear. Either way it was a shitshow. What else, what else.... Well Apartheid in South Africa was ended mostly peacefully, give or take a few 'necklaces.' Of course now IT'S going to shit. You may be on to something.
