Example:

“So, are you gonna join us for the party tonight?”

flashback sequence to getting bullied a lot in school

“Um… no thanks!”

Or it could be for more serious thing like war and the backstory of dictators.

      that guy’s more recent stuff is much better. he’s really grown as a writer and video creator

      one of my favourite videos of his, “sleep is just death being shy”, guides you through a mortality related existential crisis and leaves you with a sense of wonder for existance, good stuff
