Social circumstances lead to our individual behaviors,
putting our social compositions into “states.” For example, if multiple people
engage in selfish behavior, then non adherents have to revert to that sort of
behavior to survive, lest they fall behind and lose out on resources. But if
the society as a whole is in a cooperative state, then it is the selfish actors
that are censured and excluded from the social product. It takes a certain
critical threshold from one state to snap to another. It is the social
connection and the reciprocation between connections that provides the tension
that keeps the state coherent and stable. If you take a few high energy
individuals that project a certain amount of energy that is a certain quality
to enough nodes, it spreads through the network in a sympathetic manner.
