I mean, they're not wrong other than the fact that you kind of have to have a revolution before you can start exporting it. If the US wakes up tomorrow morning and decides to create a DotP, address its massive pile of crimes against humanity at home and abroad, and genuinely becomes a proper socialist nation and then decides that it wants to arm fellow socialists in Saudi Arabia or wherever then go for it.
Of course. This person is some weird Trot-to-neocon-pipeline graduate trying to justify the existing US bombing brown people to do imperialism. I was just pointing out that the same argument made in good faith assuming a socialist government rises in a former imperial core power isn't wrong.
Dictatorship of the proletariat. It doesnt mean dictatorship as its widely used today, just as a description of which class is on top. Marx described every capitalist and feudalist state as a dictatorship of the bourgois/capital so its used to indicate what class is in controll of the state and society . So a dictatorship of the proletariat more or less the period that follows a revolution with the working class taking hold of the state and power, recreating it with a new class character and supressing the burgeois and and reactionaries

Do you not see that this person is using "antifascism" as a justification for imperialism?
