What I don't see mentioned here: It's entirely possible to be on opposite sides of the fence, hate the other party's actions, but still respect (or even like)

  There is a part of Ghost in The Wires that is pretty close to that: Ring me up, Mate. Neill. That made me smile. But what the hell? I figured: he already knew he had been hustled, so I had nothing to lose. I called. “Hey, Neill, what’s up?” “Hey, mate.” No anger, no threats, no hostility. We were like two old friends. We spent hours talking, and I shared all the intricate details of how I’d hacked him over the years. I decided I might as well tell him, since it wasn’t likely to work on him again. We became telephone buddies, sometimes spending hours on the phone together over several days.
