The problem with Mikey is that he spends too much time discussing these ideas with liberal "intellectuals" And Intellectuals have been largely duped by bad philosophies of progressives. It's like they are incapable of seeing how this cancer is affecting their thought process. Mikey doesn't think he's progressive, but, because he is open minded, he's also been affected by the cancer. He's definitely not progressive in the truest sense of the word, but he has been warped by that way of thinking. 10 years ago, he would not believe these things.
