I don't think so, because he sees society in a different way.
Explanation:
For instance, when he has a conversation with Randy, a Soc from the opposing gang, he can relate to him even though they're supposed to be enemies. He also sees the world differently, like when he sees the sunset with another Soc, Cherry Valance. He realizes that he and Socs like her aren't in two different worlds after all. He's the only one in his gang that understands this, that maybe the groups could coexist or find their similarities.
