The author is clearly smart enough to comment on sjw culture, but chose not to, so it made me suspect he was playing up the naive-foreigner act a little too much for effect, like Poirot does in his mysteries. Still, it was funny :)
well, it was more about managing my default stance w.r.t modeling others' minds. for practical purposes, where is the greatest harm? false positive sincerity or false negative insincerity? accurate modeling can't be done in general. have to make an assumption initially.

I think one can just be open to evidence without adopting a prior. You only need to make a guess when you have to act, and usually there’s plenty of time to collect an impression before that. (Not always, of course!)
