The Netflix docuseries seemed like a reasonably balanced presentation on the cold war with air time given to multiple viewpoints. Obviously many details are going to be left out when covering such a huge topic and the part considering Ukraine already seems overly optimistic given what happened since but I can't fault anyone for hoping things would turn out better than they have.
