Mostly it is just a disconnect between the systemic vs. individualist framing. I do think that if you follow every lead under either framework you can actually get to the same conclusion since these systemic issues are the sum of entire classes acting in their perceived individual self-interests that just happen to be shared. But the systemic framing offers a very helpful layer of abstraction that makes getting there (and therefore further examination of the issues) much less of a chore.
