No, you can't give context. China bad! /s
On a serious note, reading a while back about what happened during the opium wars was horrendous. And also finding out that South Korea was governed by murderous fascists until very fairly recently, while the US was supporting the South Korean regime was also an eye opener to me.
The "governed by murderous fascists until very fairly recently" mirrors Taiwan's timeline as well.
