    I think it’s usually less explicit than that. Human survival is predicated on being part of a community. Exile is an existential threat. And for most of our existence, you couldn’t just change communities. So you want to think like those around you. There doesn’t have to be a threat of physical violence, just a threat of no longer belonging.
