Skeptics

I ran into skeptics in my philosophy classes who were proud of the fact they were always able to tear down the systems of others. But they were taking the easy way out. Never settling on a viewpoint (or at least pretending they hadn't) allowed them the luxury of throwing rocks but never being a target themselves. What they failed to realize is that life does not allow this option and we all vote with our feet even when remaining verbally neutral. A sense of desperation will shadow those who recognize the situation for what it is.
