Monarchies and dictatorships are just different flavors of authoritarian rule. They aren't the same but their effect on the population is essentially the same. The comparison is fine, but for people to whom "words mean things", the distinction may be more important.
Is their any difference between a hereditary dictatorship and a absolute monarchy?
Not enough that I care to personally differentiate the two. Am I am vaguely aware of the historical differences/context, but that's mostly a byproduct of making an effort to not misinterpret other people's discussion.
