Are we asking enough hard questions about Ukraine? (www.politico.eu)

When the dust settles, will the West’s media coverage get a passing grade, or will we find, at times, we allowed our sympathy for the Ukrainian cause to overlook matters we shouldn’t?

Did people even ask the easy questions (without being banned and censored)? Y'know... questions that would have been answered by looking at the photos of the Ukrainian soldiers and the symbols they wore? Or the posts and comments they frequently made? I'm actually curious what the "hard" questions could be, when a lot of the answers were pretty apparent.

I read "hard questions" here as "questions we won't like the answers to", which is kinda funny if that's how they mean it, because in that case they know they won't like the answer (probably because it's staring them in the face) so they just avoid asking the question, and shout "Russian propaganda!" at anyone who does.

And this little dynamic is coincidentally an answer to the main question the article is posing, already baked into itself.

Yeah... there's always just enough self-awareness in their words that I have to wonder if they're poor liars, or suffering some kind of ingrained mental block that keeps them from finishing the line of logic.
