I imagine it would depend on the specific dictator. And who you're asking, I imagine the government and corporations would prefer whichever dictator will most do whatever they're told. We all tend to like dictators, just so long as we're not under their umbrella of power.
But regardless of whether it just results eventually in another dictator, quite possibly worse than the previous one, my default position is to be in favor of the people in a nation at least spasmodically making the effort to choose their government. It may fail to make things better, the historical record kind of argues that the odds are against them. But kind of like terrorism it generally only needs to succeed once.
