Marli's mind rushes to consider an answer, the question certainly had layers to it. Nonetheless, she takes a drink of water and responds.
"Well, I think in the beginnin our loyalties are all stacked and strengthened by de order we acquired dem in, so first our family of course, then our friends, then so on and on. I think dat's prolly the best way, with perhaps some of the later on associations like jobs or friends changin. But family remains de core, de core group like ya said. When there is conflict, most people fall inward, to the closest group and dats the family, de parents and their spouse. So when they overlap, we stick with the oldest. As per establishments, I think every group keeps itself apart to a degree, keeps itself individual if a group even can do dat without bein a group anymore. But all of dese groups are just individuals gathered together for some particular reason, so at de end of de day, people will wanna stick with their own beliefs. Loyalties are based on agreement, and when dats gone, no matter the overlap, they leave. That individuality is what triumphs over de conflict, because the individual is de basic unit of society, not de groups, and dats true even in New York."
She stopped, to think for a bit, before adding.
"Groups of individuals have loyalties, but I am not sure if dey would be to the group, the idea of the group, the individual leader, or even the other individuals. So perhaps definin loyalty dynamics in a group is a better startin point."
