You are constantly being influenced - consciously or unconsciously.
You might just have read and article that you haven't processed or brought you into a specific mindset. You likely carry around deeper believes and biases that blind you of some aspects of your surroundings or make you misinterpret them. Or just a weekly stress of things you need to go through. Pain in your back, I don't know.
Your mind is constantly in a state of evolvement and never still. There is always sth going on.
As same as with your software, so is also other people's software (aka your mind and thought patterns). Show empathy, but also challenge them in their current believes.
You want to be with the ones who can be honest about their shortcomings and have a healthy discussion around it. Maybe you help them uncover a blind spot and appreciate it, or they will help you uncover a blind spot.
Or, maybe you guys are not there yet and still in processing mode, so acknowledging and action upon it doesn't happen yet. But you should be honest with each other while not "destroying" or getting offensive towards each other.
