Someone round here has been pushing the james lindsey stuff recently and I gave it a listen, and I heard him say this just last the other day. It was almost the exact same example about there being a car accident, pedestrian and driver, whose fault is it. We on the sane spectrum would look at who was driving where and when, who had right of way, what the rules are,
The left has a very system view of the world: "yes, the city for pushing cars and our culture for pushing a culture expecting us to work and thus drive is what is at fault, and it must be upended and destroyed, and anyone who supports any of this is complicit"
This is who were are fighting. This answer is typical of the 'systematic' leftist view of things. Now, I do think the responder is satirical in this case, but it's the manner of thinking we're fighting.
I don't mind a good systems analysis to study problems.
But, the Left is just fucking lying about caring about systems. They believe in conspiracies and cabals (which is why they form their own). A good system analysis is going to allow us to solve some abstract problems and build efficiency. It is not going to explain who's at fault.
