Adversative means you are opposed to something, you do not support it.

Yes, you are right, it is the opposite

it is the expression of an opposite view.
this particular word isn't a very commonly used word in English. we are more likely to make a sentence using 'the/an adverse view' or more likely 'the/an opposing view'

The reverse.
When you are 'adversative' you are rather opposing something.
When 2 things are 'adversative' they are contradictive, affirming the opposite or contrary of each other.
