He does.

Ive been thinking about this. In a murmuration a lot of information is shared very rapidly about the velocity of many individuals within the flock. I think that in our culture, it sometimes seems as if there are consciously orchestrated conspiracies among certain segments of our society, when really individuals are picking up on subtle cues to behave certain ways. I think cultural trends spread like murmurations.

Of course sometimes it is a literal conspiracy. But I think a lot of what we are witnessing is automatic behavior.
