Not a huge stretch at all.
Understand the logic of it, the combinations encompass everything.
Love something about self, love same thing in others.
Hate something about self, hate same thing in others.
The first two are pretty easy to see as they are agreements that people make with themselves and others. The second are a bit harder to see, but easy to example.
Love something about self, hate same thing in others.
I love being successful, but other people's success jeopardizes my own.
Hate something about self, love same thing in others.
I hate that I cannot be friendly and outspoken, I wish I could be like John who is much more outgoing than I am.
The easiest example to point out are exsmokers. Most are vehement about others smoking around them saying it's so stupid, why? Because they hate smoking so much and need to berate and degrade the concept or idea because they need that crutch in order to "convince" themselves that their path is good.
