And I am quite happy for you to be confrontational and argumentative with me - it may be a way for you express and discover your feelings.
And it is interesting how we use MBTI. I would like us to deepen our understanding of how we use MBTI. Part of that is understanding the history of MBTI and how it relates to similar movements.
It is very interesting that you find it hard to put your finger on your suspicions. So perhaps you might like to handle your suspicions and show them to us.
Perhaps you might like to feel your suspicions, bring them into your conscious mind and share them with us.
Your suspicions do sound interesting.

Hi Victor, just wanted to say thank you for the reply (which I read through several times) and for trying to help me validate rather than dismiss my feelings/suspicions. You made me think more deeply, and I appreciate that. I'll keep kicking my thoughts around in my head, and who knows, if they form into anything coherent maybe I'll share them in a new thread.
