Does anyone else has this huge fear of being unintelligent?

I know alot of people hate or dislike charlie kirk for what he said and I understand but I once heard charlie kirk in an interview that one of his biggest fears is forgetting something he should already know and as someone who prioritizes intellectualism, debates heavily and has an extreme fear being seen as unintelligent or uninformed that i end up spending near hours per day in the mirror practicing debate ideas and political information so I dont forget anytime soon, that hits harder than it should. I know the whole mirror thing is weird but i fear the idea of being confronted or questioned about my view on a certain political and being unable to back it up. Its probably why i sometimes procrastinate to study politics properly because i absolutely fear forgetting statistics, debate logic and ideas months or even years later.

I feel like this is why i mainly argue logic than numbers and stats. I feel logic, pattern recognition and critical thinking is easier to argue when it comes on to politics because its alot easier to remember your own arguements and logic rather than remembering some stats you read last month. Stats help but normally i'm the one who come up with my own logic and critical thinking so remembering it is alot easier since i mostly come up with the arguement and then simply fact check it after. So what i do is that you wont really see me arguing too much about race. I do it but race heavily rely on statistics etc. I much prefer to argue moral and economic stuff like abortion, immigration, capitalism, communism, gender issues etc.

Is anyone else like this even in the slightest or am I genuinely tripping?

My sister tried to merge my mothers day gift with hers

I'm not mad at all, I just find the whole situation funny😭she refused to seperate my gift from her gift when giving them to my mom. She didnt wanna seperate it because she KNOWS that mine is much better and would outshine her presents so she would rather put both our gifts in a single bag and treat it as a team effort☠️ she even called it "a mixture of gifts between me and [my name]" knowing damn well mine is completely different from hers.

I know this is all strategy because my sister is very egoistic and competitive ever since she was born and i kid you not. So I most wholeheartedly believe that if it was a situation where hers was better, she would seperate it for sure and even my older brother highlighted it lmaoo.

Communist ridicule capitalists and say there is no legal and ethical way to make billions, saying the only way they can is by committing crimes and fucking people over. By their logic, that would make an overwhelming majority of the country's money dirty money right? Yet if we were supposed to transition into a communist society at this very instant, the very same money that they call dirty money when they ridicule capitalists is the same money they'll be using and distributing like crazy under a communist society just as they did with cuba and all the other attempts of communism. So if communist were so moral, why dont communist burn and get rid of all of the money earn by capitalism and start over fresh since the money is so dirty? They would never do that because they rely on capitalism as much as they whine that they hate it.

They complain constantly on how capitalism is bad, treating capitalism as a whole as exploitative instead of actually realizing that there are bad/extreme parts of capitalism just like every other political system. They say they wanna get rid of capitalism but when its actually time to get rid of capitalism and every remnant of it, they dont wanna do that because to get rid of capitalism means to destroy around 80% of jobs and burning 95% of monet since an overwhelming majority of jobs and money were created and earned by capitalism, so they would rather just invade, colonize and takeover all these companies and assets created by capitalism and sieze it as their own as if it was theirs all along because they know completely getting rid of it will result in a collapse of economy and they need capitalism. Theyre nothing but colonizers in my eyes because they never wanna build anything, they just take.

Not only that, they only preach about communist in already successful societies. Not saying it never happens but the loudest mouths about communism are almost never in third world or even developing countries because they know that shit would almost instantly cause famine if they dont already have capital to practice their communism. The omly time you hear people preaching about communism is in countries that are successful and ripe for their taking. The problem isnt even that theyre critisizing capitalism because even I do that, but the problem is when they treat the entire system as exploitative and unnecessary instead of just accepting that just like every political system, there are good and bad parts of capitalism.
