Sometimes we suck it up and find and sometimes we bend and go with the flow.
If somebody believes that a particular instance or form or cultural method or reason for extinguishing life is murder, then for that person to be involved is complicit to murder.
Now let's resolve Paragraph 1 with Paragraph 2 and see if I am able to convey what I believe is the source of the apparent disparity in views.

The individual makes a decision about right and wrong and what to dismiss without regard to it actually being right or wrong. Of course, the government doesn’t need to care about that. We are just mortar to be ground at the whim of the Pharos’s vanity.
BTW your case seems to suggest that we lie to ourselves because we don’t want to feel part of something icky. I agree with that.
