Well back in time Mahatma Gandhi the face of freedom in India and Rabindranath Tagore the most influential writer and educationist as well as the first Indian Nobel Prize winner were kind of in a friendly though strained relationship as Tagore while praising most of Gandhi's idea but one thing he didn't accepted was Gandhi's ideology of strong Swadeshi (self-made or domestic) as he saw that the the new India shall learn the good things from abroad(west) as well as see the negative side of it's culture and traditions. Basically Tagore was against strong nationalism.
But the difference in thinking didn't break apart Tagore and Gandhi as not liking a specific idea didn't made them to dislike the whole person.
I talk about this cause now I see that even a slightest change in views makes us here go apart to extreme

This applies to both the left as well as the right. We are so much busy in declaring the perfect ideologies that we forget reality.
