Task: Question Answering
Input (English): Context: People who regularly say " Merry Christmas " think nothing of it , and assume that everyone understands it as a polite gesture . But how awkward and estranging it is for a Jew , Muslim , Atheist , or anyone else not practicing the holiday under the same terms as a Christian . Especially when it comes in such high frequency . I must admit however , that as soon as I left , my mild outrage transformed into radical jealousy . 
Question: What political ideology does the narrator seem to have ?
Output (English): They are progressive .
