The military is upset that he's taken matters into his own hands and they're trying to salvage the mess before it gets even worse. The sympathetic characters are the people who don't like the direction Eren is taking. He left Armin and Mikasa behind, and that's probably he knows that what he's going to do is something they would never support.

Narratively, if Eren was considered in the right, his friends would be beside him, but they're not, which shows which direction the story is going.

They came and helped him during his unsanctioned attack on Liberio, so if he's refusing to count on them now, what he has planned is likely to be so unpleasant that he's not even bothering to ask them for help. Just because someone is sympathetic doens't mean they're right. Someone MIGHT sympathize with the Warriors, but they're still the villains of the story, regardless of their motives or circumstance. If Eren isn't including Armin and Mikasa on his plan, it's because the latter two have lost sight on how to best protect Paradis. The pacifist approach that Armin takes is clearly not going to save them, and the fact that Mikasa protected a Marleyan killer shows she has no concern for her own people, regardless of what she told Kiyomi several pages earlier.

Eren is still the main character. He is still the focus of the series. From the beginning, his purpose has been to wipe out his enemies, both Titans and the ones across the sea. Obviously Zeke has an agenda, but if Eren allying with him involves using the rumbling and wiping out the outside world, so be it. It's the only way Paradis can truly be safe, no matter how idealistic the SC has become. Yes so true, unless Zeke has dangerous agenda that can harm Paradise. Eren will most likely Attack his older Half-brother. After all, we saw how he reacted on protecting Historia. It's possible that is what Eren truly doing....Protecting his queen, including fellow countrymen.
