There’s this cultural exchange program going on at my university where I’m supposed to do a zoom call with people living in Kiev, Ukraine. The war will be mentioned as part of the meeting. Should I bs them or should I tell them that I don’t support their Nazi military and government?

Edit: I know someone from Donetsk who’s now fighting for the Donetsk People’s Republic. Should I mention him?

    This is bait, right? Why would you mention the war if they don’t mention it? Why would you put your university degree at risk to dunk on some randos who don’t even necessarily oppose you?

      It is not and I was told that the war will be mentioned by them.

        Will they be asking your opinion?

        Edit: it seems like you’re considering putting yourself in a tough position for little to no benefit, and with potential risk.

          I don’t know. I was just told that they will want to talk about the war.

      I think maybe OP is not good at english and is expressing himself poorly. Maybe the war is a part of the agenda of the meeting.
