Or maybe he was just being nice? I can't imagine being invited to friend's new house and not giving compliments unless im like worried about them moving into an unsafe situation.

Sure, maybe he was being performatively praising when he didn't actually care that much at all about the home's decor itself, but wanted to affirm the resident's decor choice regardless.

Aka 'being nice'.

Maybe a million different possible things.

Why do you imagine its a new house, like the resident just moved there?

You could just... be going to someone's home for the first time. Maybe they've lived there for years, maybe they just moved in, who knows?

My point here is that there's a lot of additional context required for your interpretation. Your interpretation also manufactures and then ascribes an intent.

My interpretation only requires that men who were raised poor exist, and does not manufacture or ascribe an intent.

What a bunch of argumentative bullshit. Have fun being contrarian. 🙄
