People search for villains when mechanisms would explain more.

Blame is a satisfying explanation and often a shallow one. Most bad outcomes are produced by incentives, structures, unclear ownership, and pressure rather than by anyone deciding to cause harm. Finding a villain feels like resolution while leaving every condition that produced the result in place.

After something goes wrong, try to describe it once with no people in the sentence, only mechanisms. Then add the people back. You will usually find both matter, and the mechanism is the part you can actually change.
