Well let's consider s4 for a second. Here’s Riley working under Maggie Walsh. A woman of strength who he thought was focused on the greater good that ended up betraying his beliefs when she tried to murder the woman he loves then discovers the experiments she did on him.
Now in season eight we almost have the same situation with Buffy. A woman of strength who he thought was focused on the greater good until he discovers she’s using her new slayer army to rob banks and steal guns (okay wasn’t Buffy’s order but the perception rings true).
As for the sarcastic remarks, like I said, he’s not one for the independent thought and it’s wouldn’t be the first time he’d been brainwashed by a higher force then himself.
