I don't normally support interventionism and that kind of policy, but in the case of North Korea I can make an exception lol. I really don't get what China has to gain from antagonizing the west and Japan at this point, especially over some two-bit military dictatorship that has nothing to offer them.

China supports NK so as not to have a USA ally on there land borders that's all there is to it.
It's the same reason for the Ukraine situation Russia doesn't want USA supporters right on there border.
Just be thankfull they're not as bad as the USA is? was? with non friendly nations being close to their coastal borders or it would be the cuban missle crisis again.

Eh there are plenty of Americans and american allies in that region as it is. Either way I don't really care about the geopolitical situation as much as I do about the suffering of the North Koreans.

You might not, but the government (and here in the UK) does, and I guarantee you they won't go to war just because they feel they should. At best they might do it to win domestic support by being seen to back a noble cuase, but most of the time they're being ruthlessly pragmatic and playing the game for what they believe is the national interests (whatever that's supposed to mean nowadays)
