Collaborate?

[deutschemeister]

no it's kind of like "to relate to" siding with doesn't actually make any sense with regard to what I'm trying to figure out

Empathize?

[deutschemeister]

dammit no. The context is that a documentary filmmaker manipulates the presentment of material in a way that makes the viewer choose one suspect in a murder trial instead of the other. You see the point of view of the good guy and you feel similar to him and understand where he's coming from. You ______ with that person.
