Do you feel let down when people see your enemy's point of view as well as your own?

Especially when the enemy's "point of view" is based on malicious lies and bigotry?
No it's fine to to see your enemy's point of view. I'd say that's a good thing.
Understanding their point of view doesn't mean you agree with it or find it to be a valid point of view. It just means you understand.

I'm sorry that logic simply does not support your position.

But guess what?
I now understand where you're coming from. I understand your point of view even though i don't agree with it and my point of view remains in tact despite that understanding馃槈馃憤

Just think about what i said. It won't hurt you to consider that you might be wrong. You don't have to admit it publicly here. Just try to understand what i was saying and then decide for yourself whether you agree with my point of view馃檪

You're closed minded. What a shame. Perspective is everything in interpretation. If you can understand where the "enemy" (although I thought we were all human beings) is coming from, you can understand why they do what they do and decide on your own if that's right or wrong. Not following like a sheep blindly calling people bigots and assuming they have bad intent. Also, it opens a door to change their mind as well as your own. Psychology gets interesting. Should look into that.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

It's all about perspective. Some prefer a closed mind with closed opinion unable to change. That's fine. But you'll miss out on quite a bit. Fully grasping certain things will be outside of your reach. Really depends on what you value, I guess. We live in a time where if you're just trying to live you life like everyone else your opinion is irrelevant. You no longer risk your life by not seeing both sides.
A president, for example, should be able to set aside personal beliefs to take a step back and see both sides. All sides. @Callmyname

It just annoys me when they get involved in it and it wasn't about them

@Callmyname realize the discussion wasn't with them and stay away simply.

People who don't have "a dog in the game" and afford not to take a side talk like that.

I never trust those sorts because it equals silence.

Silence only hurts the victim. It only emboldens the wrong doer.

I don't have enemies. I have people I occasionally agree to disagree with and anyone I have persistent issues with are not in my life.

Let down? No. Know your enemy.
