    I’ve noticed this a lot lately. People not understanding that processes/actions can have multiple causes/reasons. I wonder why that is?

      Echo chambers probably play a role. If you are in circle A that focuses a lot on a certain set of issues then you might attribute everything to that issue without keeping an open mind about what circle B is discussing.

      So anticapitalists always think everything bad is because capitalism. Same with people focused on racism or western imperialism or tech or whatever. In reality everything interacts and affects the others.
