Yes but thats what I am saying, you seem to think these things made me skewed, but they didnt, they made me realistic. Which is why I get into trouble with these ridiculous healthcare debates. I have been on the bottom of the totem pole and scratched my way up on my own merits, no one gave it to me. I dont know if you OR he have the intuition as INFPs to see where I am coming from because you cannot disassociate your logic from your feelings. Believe it or not, INFJs do disassociate their logic from their feelings, we just realize that we still have feelings and we make a decision based on logic AND feelings. And the way that works out is that we tend to say things like "oh I know this isnt logical or right for me and the best thing for me to do would be to leave this situation, but I cant because I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I hurt her because it will kill her if I left her." This is the thought I had running through my head for 8 years while dating my ex gf. I know exactly logically what is what, but I make the choice any way. If that's not Fe for example, I don't know what is.
And you guys picking up on my projecting an image, doesn't mean Si, what it actually is is me protecting myself from everyone around me because my Fe gets me into trouble constantly when I try to fix people and fix things for people because I don't want them to feel bad. This is why I know that dude isnt an INFJ or he is an INFJ who is lying because he has an ends justify the means attitude, which in this case is lying. Because to read the stuff I wrote and say there is no Ni in there is laughable at best.
I am actually quite realistic when it comes to these things, more so than some of my liberal friends who come from upper middle class backgrounds. I haven't seen any particularly intellectual defense for your political opinions, frankly they seem like regurgitated Fox news conspiracy theories with a dash of punk rock thrown in. You also made some factual errors in your short, emotionally biased replies. That does not a logical world view make, my friend. There are plenty of logical reasons why liberatarianism does not work, and it is not only INFPs who disagree with you - there are plenty of INFJs and NTs who are going to strongly disagree with what you consider a realistic or logical world view.
At any rate, you very well may have Fe, but it didn't particularly show in your posts which I read. And the fact that you think you're doing the old man a favor by killing a bunch of his trees - he obviously loves nature from what you described, and may be that your ENTJ mentor is just an OCD exacting prick - is a little...creepy, actually. Imagining that you know what's best for other people doesn't mean that you truly have their best interest at heart. The truth of the matter is you care about property value and not about an old man's feelings. Not surprising considering your world view, of course.
Your assumption that all INFPs are dreadfully deficient in logic just makes you look silly, too.
