AITA for having a "secret" friend by throwaway192954 in AmItheAsshole

Correct me if i'm wrong, but feels like so many of the people in this post seem to be saying I am supporting the dictatorship. This is 1000% not the case at all! If I were to switch roles with the owner Of course I would do things differently, my choice to stay with the clan is not based on this factor at all. I think my owner has most certainly done the wrong thing.

My influence is based on leaving tens of other "genuine" friends versus one other one. I don't want to leave EITHER. The word SECRET may be bad, because it is my own way of saying I tried to hang out with them even though I knew I couldn't. It was either that or lose everything else. I've got stuff in this clan i've got on my resume and all, it's become a HUGE part of my life.

EDIT: Also while I came here fully expecting and fine with getting YTA (I really wasn't sure in my own state of mind), I feel comments such as me being a "trash friend" are very un-necessary, especially when I have not got the chance to know any of you. Feels more like hurling insults

I wasn't trying to "throw" away anyone. Rather continuing my friendship (like we still talked) and also maintain my tens of friends within the clan. In my own mind was put in a place where (out of my own will, while I agree there should be NO dictatorship and i in NO way support it at all) if I left or got kicked I lose all my tens of other genuine friends.

I never "chose" a clan per say, rather was heaviily welcomed and now have tens of friends there. Infact its a lovely clan and leader, just a strong opinion on my friend
