There are combinations of feelings, such as Love + Hate = Jealousy.
When you experience a feeling, it is based on your perception at that time. Hence, what you perceive, say disgust, based upon the information your brain has processed is correct because what your senses took in, disgusted you.
Could your perception be off? Yes. does that mean your feeling was incorrect? No. Of course, when you get corrected material, your feeling(s) may or may not change.
How a person acts upon their feeling is a different thing.
Personal decisions differ also; such as to hate toward an ethnic group is not a feeling.
Oversimplified explanation, but maybe take a simple approach. Instead of applying this to the world, apply it to you and your loved ones. Accepting the concept will help you understand their feelings and deepen your love for each other.
