As a professional soldier, once you raise your arms, you lost the right to complain when you get shot. That's part of the social-contract of being a soldier, and that's what differentiate between DC soldiers and Federation soldiers, and ragtag militias who try to defend their home.
Same with trying to conquer the world.
Once your end goal is complete subjugation of humanity by force, you lost your right to have your ideals peer-reviewed. People are just going to stop you, no should just stop you without thinking about it.
And...
A soldier shouldn't care if people doesn't take their ideals seriously. Because that's what wars are. A clash of ideals. Ideally, both sides should understand that the other side think that their ideals are in the right.
But as I said, once your end goal is destruction of earth, you lost your right to have your ideal discussed civilly. By then having people discuss your idea seriously is a privilege, not a right.
Same with being a soldier. Once you raise your arms as soldier, you lost your right to complain when you get shot at war.
