Makes sense to me. You're saying that the discussion needs to be on the system that allows for and causes bullying instead of the bully, right?

Yes, but my point was more about syntactic structure. The entire spiel is literally a single sentence.

Note how “the purposeful-or-not omission of broader systemic violence from discussions of bullying and blaming it instead on the a priori inherent evil of the bullies” is just the subject of the verb “causes”. And how the other argument of said verb is itself a new clause. And how there is an oblique clause starting it in “to apply his point to bullying”. And how “redirect discussions about the actual systemic causes of bullying” and “instead reinforce it as generically bad” are the coordinated arguments of the “causes” clause.

True, it doesn’t have any garden path processing or even central embedding, but it’s still an unwieldy sentence in terms of syntactic processing. I tried to diagram it several time, but the process of hammering in the clauses in order became gibbering after it started looking like this:
