Mhm... I'd tell her that there are reasons to obscure the truth that go beyond pure greed and malice.
[ Not that Gil thinks anything he did was done out of malice either - he just expects the pink princess would disagree with that assessment. ]
Pointing out every detail and grey area does not make for productive policy. It just ensures that the government will be holed up in meetings day after day while there is no material change that the populace can notice.
The world is complicated... no, let's say 'convoluted' instead. Leaders are elected to break it down and simplify it for those with different talents. This makes it necessary to omit details from time to time.
The more she tries to imbue nuance into the public conversation, the more she will divide the public's opinion on herself and her ideals. Unless she is willing to bend her principles, her dreams will grind to a halt over these issues.
