To provide a full answer to your question, I would need specific context regarding who "they" refers to and what "they" are being contrasted with. The term "they" is a pronoun that can be used to refer to a group of people, entities, or things. Without context, it's impossible to determine who "they" are.

In general, "they" could be a group defined by their actions, beliefs, characteristics, or affiliations, and they might be contrasted with another group that has different actions, beliefs, characteristics, or affiliations. For example, in a discussion about environmental policy, "they" might refer to people who advocate for strict environmental regulations, while the group they are contrasted with might be those who prioritize economic growth over environmental protection.

As for whether there is anything objectionable to being one of "them," it would depend on the values, ethics, and perspectives of the person making the judgment. If "they" represent a group that is acting unethically or causing harm, some might find it objectionable to be associated with them. Conversely, if "they" are a group working towards a positive cause or upholding values that one agrees with, being one of "them" might be seen as commendable.

Without more information, it's difficult to provide a definitive answer. If you can provide additional details or context, I would be better equipped to address your question more accurately.
