Reminds me of a poignant quote from Desmond Tutu:

If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.
Not implying a comparison to SH5 mind you, but still thought provoking nonetheless...
