Sup.
As a GM, I was thinking of interesting social conundrums, and stumbled upon a very interesting one.
You, the player, are having a public conversation with a public personality (a king, a news anchor, a political activist, etc). You are from one nation, the public personality is from another. You are to discuss a variety of political topics, with the end goal being to win as many debates as possible, and represent your nation/faction/employer/whoever-made-you-go-to-this-thing in the best light possible, to everyone listening to the conversation.
This conversation is very important in a political/diplomatic sense.
The topic of conversation meanders toward a certain 'war hero'. To the audience watching you, and indeed the nation of the public personality, this person was a valiant hero, sacrificing their life for their nation during a battle.
But you, and most people in the other nations of world, know his actions were questionable at best, and outright war crimes at worst.
The people of the speaker's nation, however, believe he is a national hero with fervour. They will not listen to reason on this, especially from a foreigner.
This is important: the 'hero' in question is objectively a bad person, a pawn for a tyrannical government, and a poster-boy for the nationalist sentiments of the nation.
As the topic is discussed, the public personality asks you: "Do you think X is a hero?"
Now, as stated previously, it is important that the outcome of this conversation be positive to -everyone- listening, including the people of the speaker's nation. Being honest, and pointing out that he wasn't such a good guy, will draw outrage from the speaker's nation. "How dare this foreigner insult our glorious hero, that filthy imperialist pig-dog!", they would say. But, agreeing that he is a hero would alienate the people from your own nation. "Why is that moron praising a war criminal?!" they would say.
The only real option is to dance around the question. So, what do?
