Unconditional love does not guarantee success.
We are all inherently selfish and discriminatory, and "friend" though relative is nonetheless an ephemeral accolade we apply to others when we are not discriminating negatively about them...I prefer to regard others as more or less reliable associates.
Unconditional love is perhaps only relevant in respect of familial bonds, though the term "unconditional love" is really just a cliche.
So, I suppose I have 99% trust in my wife and daughters...Other than that, trust will decline increasingly, relative to the mutual necessity of the association.

If Person A was my best friend for 30 years throughout school and I find out he's accused of abusing a woman, then I'm not just going to stick up for him no matter what and claim he's innocent.
I wouldn't be driven by loyalty; I'd be driven by facts. Did this person assault someone? Yes or no.
If I like Person A, I hate Person B, and Person A likes Person B, then I would be fine with that. Person B treats me bad but treats Person A fine; alright. Maybe Person B fired me and still hired Person A and I used to be co workers with Person A. Makes sense.
I don't have to pick sides between Person A and B. I can like one and hate the other while they both get along.
Oh how cute, Remy is pretending to have a friend.
That's just adorable.
How long is it going to last?
Some of MAGA remains loyal to King Trumpet --demands loyalty of biologic/soul-- USA! USA!
Putin! yes, Ukraine{ loosers } --like repubulican John McCain POW was accused of by the King Trumpet-- no!
North Korea Yes, Iran no! Benjamin Netanyahu yes! Palestinians no!
Oh wait, there is a new round of Patriot missiles being approved by USA that, may take a few years to arrive in Ukraine, after has succumbed to being loyal to King Putin.
Is it a winner take all new world, or is it the brave new world science fiction?
AI...' Brave New World is a dystopian science fiction novel by Aldous Huxley published in 1932. It describes a futuristic "World State" that sacrifices true freedom, art, and individuality for total social stability, technological efficiency, and constant artificial happiness '..
Well, as long as the divide of the rich continuing to get richer, and the poor get poorer, I dont see how it is the 1932 ..Brave New World....
Brave new world challenges social norms.
Yes I see what you are driving at...Catholic paedophilia and abuse was once the norm, but brave people eventually stood up and challenged it.
And even spread it outside the church.
