I would see a different person. So we have short-term fluctuations based on situations, and then we have long-term evolution of cultures.

And there are levers of those short-term changes and levers of the long-term changes. So in the short term, these three instincts, these three levels of tribal, uh, tribal motivation, they are, they are triggered by slightly different things.

So the peer instinct, this kind of conformity, um, this kind of set of shared habits that we just jump into, um, it's triggered by the more than anything else by the audiences around us, by the ways that they speak, by the ways that they dress, um, and, What we call code switching is an example of this.
