Removing context is how one demonizes a people. For example talking about the "savagery" of Native Americans, while omitting the savagery of Europeans. You would readily recognize that for the demonization it is. Yet swap the actors, and you confuse it for honesty and virtue. Why? Selective coverage of human rights violations is not history, but propaganda.
