technologists often make the mistake of ignoring the sociopolitical context of some problem and try to solve it entirely using technology
nontechnicals do the same thing, but in reverse, blaming technology for sociopolitical failures; where does this tendency stem from?

technology is by its nature much more legible than sociopolitical systems, which are typically not intentionally designed but rather emergent
somewhat easier to fixate on the legible explicit component of some dysfunction, even if its not the more relevant part
