You’re not wrong about Ukraine, but they’re still a lot more European than Syria will ever be and that matters a lot.

Still, I also find it ridiculous how the media’s making them look like immaculate heroes. Power of propaganda I guess.

All media is biased. Some more, some less, but being unbiased is impossible by definition. Autocratic media is biased in a compulsory way. The problem is when Democratic media becomes activist and start to sell opinions as facts (they learnt that drama and toxicity sells), becoming unshamefully biased and almost matching its counterpart. I'm not sure this is helping at all Ukraine or the world.
