I have to admit, I felt a little guilty while all the conflict was happening. I felt the pressure to get in there and post opinions and help the underdog, etc.

Question... do you all see it as disloyalty if someone doesn't get involved in the heat of things? Do you see people who don't get involved as undependable or shallow? This is the moment I feel safe voicing my internal struggles with all that was going on. I didn't really feel an opinion either way. I just don't like to see people in pain. So it's rather conflicting to want to help people from both sides of an argument. Very confusing to me. Do you think it is wise to stay out of these kinds of conflicts? Does getting involved just stir the pot and muddy the water more?

I dunno... these are honest questions I am struggling with. It was certainly more peaceful for me to stay detached. However... I felt like I betrayed you all by bailing out. What do you think?
