Anyone else have a crushing feeling of inadequacy when they read

Every great man in history felt inadequate in comparison to other great men.

E.g. Alexander the great was the symbol of heroism for centuries, but he himself felt inadequate compared to Achilles.

no, they make me feel good because while I might be an autismal loser nerd compared to normal people, the people normal people idealize are like a fart in the wind compared to great men (or even men who stand below those great men, like cicero and caesar), so there's no need to feel insignificant because compared to those dudes everyone's shit and pathetic

No.

The greatest men in history are propped up by the corpses of hundreds of thousands of fathers, sons, and innocents.

If I had that kind of blood on my hands I don't think I could live with myself. But then again I'm not an insecure loser like the rest of you cucks, and I don't feel the need to prove myself worthy to an absentee father by killing foreigners.

I think to achieve greatness, you need to feel insignificant at first.

Even Caesar compared himself with Alexander see pic related .

Not at all.
The so called "Great Men" were not better than some muslim dictators or african warlords nowadays.
We only admire them because they were "our ancestors"

Feeling inadequate compared to a guy who probably never existed seems like a sweet deal to me though.

Quite the opposite. Real great men can be emulated, mythical men and their achievements are beyond the realm of mortals. If you feel inadequate compared to mythical heroes, you will never succeed in emulating or even imitating them. Eternal emptiness awaits you.

I am more triggered by how many people surrounded them and encouraged them in every way. The ones that had mothers who dotted on them and would do anything for them especially get me
