Have no idea what type he was....
But I will say that this absolutely reeks of ISTP:
"Jung stressed the importance of individual rights in a person's relation to the state and society. He saw that the state was treated as "a quasi-animate personality from whom everything is expected" but that this personality was "only camouflage for those individuals who know how to manipulate it",[31] and referred to the state as a form of slavery.[32][33][34][35] He also thought that the state "swallowed up [people's] religious forces",[36] and therefore that the state had "taken the place of God"—making it comparable to a religion in which "state slavery is a form of worship".[34] Jung observed that "stage acts of [the] state" are comparable to religious displays: "Brass bands, flags, banners, parades and monster demonstrations are no different in principle from ecclesiastical processions, cannonades and fire to scare off demons".[37] From Jung's perspective, this replacement of God with the state in a mass society led to the dislocation of the religious drive and resulted in the same fanaticism of the church-states of the Dark Ages—wherein the more the state is 'worshiped', the more freedom and morality are suppressed;[38] this ultimately leaves the individual psychically undeveloped with extreme feelings of marginalization.[39]"
Maybe he was ISTP 5w6? Seems a possibility.
