The world is complex and always has been. But the narrative "the world today is just so much more complicated" often only serves as an argument to legitimize accepting injustice and violence.
By focusing on "how hard it is to find some EUR in the budget" we give ourselves permission to for example not house people, or have kids be hungry in school. Complexity gives us permission to accept cruelty. Because many things are simple: We have enough for every human being to be fed and clothes and housed and given a dignified life.
