The Drop Bear 2.0 
It makes me sad to see so many people saying “I’m not anyone” when introducing themselves on social media. Um, yeah, you are someone. You are you and everyone in the world has something to say and often a lot more people are interested than you may think. Unfortunately I think a lot of peoples thinking has been trained that unless you have lots of followers / you’re famous / you post controversial opinions then you’re not worthy of being heard. You are.

@dropbear I’m definitely a somebody, and I bring a lot of good to the world; I like myself (these days) and am no longer surprised when someone likes me back.
At the same time, as I am more exposed to the broader world, I meet people I truly look up to (and not just because I’m short 😁), and as a result I’m both getting better than I’ve ever been AND at the same time am less impressed with myself
I agree that defeatist language isn’t helpful and can be harmful, but also get that it may be for some true modesty, potentially in-artfully expressed.
If after reading my thoughts you think I missed your point, please do say so. I wrestle with this and appreciate the discussion.
