The financial crisis isn't the only cause, sure, but it's played a sizable part. (Arguably, it's still one of the leading causes of problems today).
Wealth recovered from the financial crisis, but people didn't. Many actual humans still haven't recovered yet. Some never will. There's close to a whole generation of people who were permanently set back by that crash, and the financial scars of that will carry with them until the day they die.
I don't disagree with the rest -- political corruption and globalization are major causes too. But it would be easier for people to be "ok" with that, if they weren't also directly struggling on the ground.
