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?

I'll be honest i don't care which side someone supports. I don't need too. The chance that i will ever know enough about the situation to determine which side is better is rather close to zero. And it just doesn't matter. The far more important things is what caused the war, and how to prevent them in the future. This war was caused by capitalism, there is no way around it. And if we ever want long term peace and prosperity for everyone we need to end it. Anti capitalism is more important than pointless factionalism over which capitalist country is slightly better than the others.
