I like it very much. Tho i would like to ask why you see objectivity as good whiile subjectivity is bad. And im not sure if "blames self for world" is really a good thing; seems like low self worth. And im missing the revolutionary character. Like martin luther king. Maybe something like "inspires others to change for good".

I too don't entirely agree with the image I used, but:

  • I can see subjectivity being used in the wrong contexts a lot: "We are disgusted by this, therefore it should be illegal".
  • Yeah, the self-blame seems weird up there, but I can imagine someone thinking "I could have done more to help the world" leading to thinking "what's the best I could do now to be satisfied with my performance later?".
  • The revolutionary might be a combination of "wants to help" and "talks out problems".
