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.

Can you elaborate on that? What specifically do you find wrong with understanding the opposing point of view?

@Pikachu It's difficult if you feel that person is manipulating you.

How us understanding where someone else is coming from two-faced?
@SW-User

Well in such cases you can still understand their point of view. Like i said, simply understanding someone's point of view doesn't mean you think it's acceptable or right.

@Pikachu Maybe. Knowing and seeing could help but also draw you back.
@Callmyname

That's not a logical conclusion. You can hold one point of view while understanding another.

Your logic dictates only that [i]holding[/i] two opposing points of view would be two-faced.
It does not support the conclusion that [i]understanding[/i] two opposing points of view is two-faced.
I don't think i can put it more simply than that.

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😉👍

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🙂
