you said you were a pacifist, I'd have thought that'd mean you'd think Rojava having any kind of defense plan is a bad thing?

That's definitely what the pro-violence people would strawman a pacifist to say. Pacifists like myself would just argue that this is not a community that murdered its way to where it is, they took advantage of an opportunity to build something, with the ideas and organization existing before to make it happen. If it went the way revolutionaries would like theyd be trying to invade territory to liberate all the Kurds, make allies with authoritarian groups, gain the scorn of the world, and then when they succeed have tons of people who hate the Kurds because they literally murdered their family members, and those toxic elements they allied with would likely be in charge leading to another dictatorship. Just like France, Iran, Russia, the US, etc etc etc Luckily they are not doing that.
