It's my understanding that engaging from the ego mindset "I'm right and everyone else is wrong" operates at an unconscious level when feeling threatened by a viewpoint, which has its roots in "If im wrong, then I don't exist, or Ill die". So when a individual has a strong ego investment in a position, its not really about what kind of view you are coming from on a conscious level because the unconscious mind drives this part. If i am understanding you correctly, I'm guessing you think that all people should be fair and just in their actions. The fact remains that we have this part of ourselves that can short circuit that kind of reasoning and it does drive much of our destructive behavior as a human species.
IMHO Its going to take awhile for the human species to evolve out of that.
