[NF] 10 Minute YT Rant on "INFJ Imposters"

[prplchknz]

I cringed. Is that normal?

probably.

I don't think anyone in their right mind is going to blame INFJs for that video, considering he is an ESTP.

I doubt anyone is going to directly blame INFJs for that video- but it seems to be part of something that goes on across the rest of the internet (where "INFJ" is supposedly some kind of coveted title, and people actually WANT "INFJ" as part of their identify....which sorta mystifies me, because this is the only personality type forum I pay any attention to and no one covets that title here*) and indirectly it contributes to the flotsam and jetsum of resent towards INFJs that washes ashore here. I have no idea how many of those people who identify as INFJ and show up elsewhere online to chant affirmations of superiority at each other actually are INFJ, and I don't even care- but it does get tiresome to deal with the backlash.


*There's an INFP here who- for one week- suspected she was actually INFJ. She later referred to that week as the worst week of her life (probably for comedic effect, but still). True story.

DJ is blaming INFPs not INFJs in the OP video. He's created forums to attract INFJ types, and instead his forums are overwhelmed with INFPs posing as INFJs. This angers DJ.

He's created forums to attract INFJ types,

Whoa. Really?

Damn, I didn't realize the hilarity ran so deep. I thought the video was simply "man angry about people mistyping themselves," not "man angry about other mistyping themselves because dammit it ruined his playground."
