The Four Zen Vows

Sentient Beings are numberless, I vow to save them.

Delusions are inexhaustible, I vow to end them.

Dharma gates are boundless, I vow to Master them.

The Buddha Way is unattainable, I vow to attain it.

It sounds like a really difficult situation, and that you need acceptance for making your own choices and standing for what you believe in

There's a book i read a couple of years ago called "The Third Side - Why We Fight and How We Can Stop". It gives different roles that a third party can play in helping resolve conflicts: https://thirdside.williamury.com/roles-overview/

Maybe you have some people in the community who can take on different roles for making peace?
