there's a meaningful distinction between being anti-war, and being opposed to military propaganda and military spending.

there are a lot of bad things about the military as an institution in the United States - we spend way too much money on it, our cultural norms around the military are completely fucked, and there are a lot of incredibly fucked up practices, like recruiting and enlistment practices as you mention.

at the same time, the reality is that the armed forces at the present moment are largely not being used for any military purpose. and the public appetite and desire for the armed forces to actually engage in a war are really not present. the disaster of Iraq really fundamentally soured the American public on war for at least a generation - much more so than Vietnam ever did. and we're not fighting any wars right now, so there's no war to make an anti-war film against. we've even withdrawn from Afghanistan and massively decreased drone strikes.
