I’m not sure which passage you mean — can you tell me the chapter or quote?
If you mean the general pattern in The Outsiders: the boys (the Greasers) mostly echo the attitudes of their own group and of the older Greasers (especially Dally) and the community they live in. In practice that shows up as:
- Repeating the Greaser code (stick together, be tough, don’t show weakness).
- Echoing Dally’s hardened, cynical view of life and the police.
- Echoing a common belief that the Socs have it easy and the system is against them (a view reinforced by adults and their social environment).
If you point to a specific line, I can give a more precise answer.
