No, that's not a generic speech to me. In that case, you're motivating a specific political issue and trying to convince anyone who's still on the fence. Contentious political issues have always been excluded from the ceremony speeches I attended.

Why? That's kinda their responsibility. Especially now, during a genocide.

Anyone who was speaking at a graduation now and didn't call for action against the war is failing miserablely

You're right, what Russia is doing in Ukraine is tantamount to genocide
