I looked out for the meaning and found something like this "if you mention the way something happens, you are mentioning the fact it happens" on collins dictionary, so going by this if someone just say
I hate the way he manipulates people, Does this imply that the speaker only hate the fact that he manipulates other or speaker dont mind his manipulations just the methods he is using to do so? So if there is not any context available which one should i consider, i'm still confused about it.
Also, in the Eminem's song Love the way you lie, does this line carried the implication that rihanna loved the lies told to her or just the ways used to do so.
