You can even try to claim some more weird ass non-existing morality points by pointing out that Hey, the US doesn't even recruit soldiers all that much nowadays... they just hire private companies now... See? US military good, it's mercenaries that are bad.
Ya know... like Wagner Group. Oh no... guess they're more alike than you think.
So your logic is that the U.S. is equally as bad as Russia because they hire mercenaries, so bums working on AC units back home share the same blame as hired guns and professional soldiers.
What a ridiculous group of people.
I know, right? I equally despise the military industrial complex at large, as well as those who are just following orders/helping out in the background and their online simps.
