This is interesting. I think this is context dependent. I think it’s true, but I also think there are mindsets that perpetuate unhealthy habits. So while I might understand, I challenge that mindset but now it’s being viewed as not understanding. And it’s not trying to weaponize anything - it’s just a philosophical difference. It’s just hard to articulate that. What do you think?

Most if not all things are context dependent so I agree with you there, but you kinda lost me at the end in that I didn't understand what you were trying to convey😅 Could you rephrase?

Haha. True. But in this day and age, most people don’t realize the context dependent part it seems. So what I was trying to say in a clunky way. Weaponized misunderstanding. I actually understand what someone is saying/experiencing. But I disagree with the mindset lens they are viewing that experience. So it might appear dismissive to someone, but it’s just how I view the world and problems. It still leads to exhaustive circle conversation, because if we have a different philosophy to tackle challenges…we might never agree. But it’s not actually miscommunication. It’s just a different view/angle of the problem.
