Not a political blog

I wish I had the self-confidence to write about politics. I wish I had the lack of self-awareness to write about politics. Humblebrag but I wish I possessed more will to act, so that's good. People who write/talk/scream about politics don't really think they have it all figured out, right? I feel things about things but the second before I open my mouth, I remind myself that there are many things I don't know, many times I wasn't paying attention and that my situation is very different for a million other people's. It's not some sense of nobility or superiority that prompts that; it just happens because...I was raised to be polite? I've been wrong countless times before? I don't know what the hell I'm talking about? I want to be someone who's ready to take on everyone with their bare hands and a crowbar to defend what they believe but it's starting to fell like I'd have to become a completely different person to do it.
