That's not the point that Population 1 was trying to make. Emotional manipulation is not exclusive to feelers. Just the other day my ISTJ mother started giving me the silent treatment because she wanted me to feel the pain of me not listening to her, which is manipulation. In my rage, unable to counter this, I reacted by manipulation of my own, I decided to see if my mother would talk to me if I started starving myself and I went on a hunger strike for two days.
Here's an example of emotional manipulation from a thinker.
I also don't think that just because you can think of examples of times thinkers have used emotional manipulation, it somehow makes that a trait that is particularly exhibited by thinkers.
