if you can’t correct your friends when they’re wrong about something because you’re afraid they’ll lash out at your or otherwise hurt you then they’re not your friends.
if you can’t tell your friends when they’re being cruel to other people because you’re afraid they’re going to be cruel to you then they’re not your friends.
if your friendship with someone depends on always agreeing with them, always complying with what they want, and treating them as though they’re incapable of ever doing anything wrong or else they’ll turn on you and attack you (whether verbally or physically) then that is not a friendship and they are not your friends.
