What is the meaning of this verse in SGGS

ਝੂਠੈ ਕੀ ਰੇ ਝੂਠੁ ਪਰੀਤਿ ਛੁਟਕੀ ਰੇ ਮਨ ਛੁਟਕੀ ਰੇ ਸਾਕਤ ਸੰਗਿ ਨ ਛੁਟਕੀ ਰੇ ॥: Jhoothai kee re jhooth pareet shuttakee re mann shuttakee re saakat sang na shhuttakee re: False is the love of the false one; break the ties, O my mind, and your ties shall be broken. Break your ties with the faithless cynic (sggs 535).

Hi, I have a question In relation to the above passage from Gurbani. It's is mentioned that we should break our ties with the faithless cynic. Does that mean we should unfriend people who do not believe in God? Because I am sure a lot of us have friends who are good human beings, yet they may not necessarily believe in God. They are kind, compassionate, loving and so on. Could someone kindly provide some context and clarification on this?

Thank you very much for clearing this confusion of mine.
