Don't say anything that will get you fired. Remember that American public opinion doesn't affect America's policies at all (The same is true for most western countries). Convincing people in the west doesn't really help either the Ukrainian or Russian people.
What might be a fun position to take is saying "We should ask the contributor to change to message to refer to all Nazis and their accomplices instead of just Ukrainian ones".
Edit: Somebody recommended the OSS manual on bureaucratic sabotage. That also sounds like a fun idea.

Maybe this is a good place to start: one article you have handy (just one) from a lib-friendly outlet that shows a bunch of the world does not see this as black and white. Maybe one similar article on Nazis in Ukraine.
More sources will not help, and you'll probably have more luck with an indifferent "well most of the world thinks differently than the U.S." approach than with getting dug in.
