A reminder to "think for yourself" can be helpful, and does not necessarily imply a lack of clarity or boldness. Sometimes a story is told so well, that you get emotionally wrapped up and forget to take a step back and make a fair-minded analysis. Not everyone is an astute reader.

You also included some conditional statements with, "depending on the context" and "But in a general analysis". I see no problem with acknowledging that things aren't always black & white.
