Yep, intentions and narratives get plastered on top of a system, and people want to believe in it because surely the system must be basically good and at least trying to do the right thing like it says on the tin-- anything less would be ridiculous and unthinkable, right??
After enough generations, and after watching injustice and inequality metastisize until it's even fucking up the WHOLE BIOSPHERE, at some point people need too consider that the purpose of a system is what it actually DOES-- which is consistently enriching the powerful at the expense of everyone else, while using ideas like equality and democracy and justice as a manipulative PR campaign keeping us trusting and complacent.
