I think the U.S. has a very different agenda for why they don't like Assad or Kim Jong-un and it's all about the global power balance.
The government lies to us telling us the reason they want to invade and topple these foreign leaders is that they are "evil dictators" to get us to support the war. They don't tell us the true reason why they want to go to war.
Some people will continue to claim that North Korea harms its own citizens, but I'm very skeptical about that. We have no unbiased source of that information. Even if they do harm their own citizens, the U.S. has allied with plenty of dictators before so it's not a suitable explanation for why we have to attack them.

This sounds a lot like a Neville Chamberlain speech......
