Also can't much attribute all the complexities of both wars to just "capitalism" either. That was my point.

Yes you can? Capitalism was very much at the root of the conflict. It can accurately be reduced to capitalism. You can elaborate and provide further detail to how it happened, but that doesn't change the big picture.

Of course you can over-simplify everything. You can do whatever you want!

There is a difference between simplifying and oversimplifying. Just like there is a difference between nuance and losing the forest for the trees.
