Its not disingenuous, you just said yourself "many people don’t know about the years before and the power struggles between oligarchs, riots, and assassination plots..."

And yes I agree, the media fails to give context. I think that's because they (mainstream news for example) are more interested in getting you to take a side, than they are just giving you the information.

How is saying "Ukraine started the war" not disingenuous?

Sorry, never mind. I misunderstood that part of your previous comment!
