There’s this thing I’ve been noticing a lot about typing INFP’s and that is the tendency to Manic Pixie Dream Girl the whole personality. Which while at times is flattering I think does a disservice to the “reality” of the type. An INFP is primarily motivated by their internal morals and ideals. They are an idealistic type. If an INFP’s ideals are monstrous they will cling to those ideals religiously and their actions will reflect them. An INFP that is bigoted, or racist, or nationalistic believes those things are correct, even self-evident. I think many of the historical figures people type as more “Rational” types are typed that way due to a perception that evil is separate from emotional intelligence. It isn’t. I think some or many of the worst people in history are INFPs precisely because their moral codes are so ironclad.
For fear of invoking Godwin’s Law I can easily see an INFP Nazi camp commandant doing atrocious war crimes to others based on the moral ideal that what they are doing is helping the world, and them being totally secure in that idea. Even using their Ne to come up with new ideas to make the work even faster or easier. INFP idealism is NOT the same as philosophical idealism. An INFP’s idealism is what that individual INFP believes is moral based on an internal examination of feeling. INFP’s uniquely create their own moral codes. Those codes can be incredibly different from society’s.
Although I don’t believe an INFP would enjoy that type of work, I can see them stoically doing it out of a sense of obligation. A stubborn pride that, although the work is dirty, it is a good thing to do. I want to be clear here that I abhor Nazis and every aspect of their ideology. What I’m trying to highlight is the idea of the “fluffy” INFP that daydreams through life or pursues love and friendship is, if not wrong, then deeply flawed and will cause you to mischaracterize many of the people in your life. That’s just my opinion though.

As protests start ramping up and violence escalates please remember:
DO NOT PUT MILK IN YOUR EYES FOR PEPPER SPRAY OR TEAR GAS.
It can and will cause infection due to bacteria. Flush with water, distilled if possible, and never EVER wear contact lenses to protests where there may be police retaliation.
Please reblog. It may save someone's sight.

If you're having trouble keeping up with what's going on in Palestine because of US news coverage of university protests, here are some articles you can read and a video you can watch:
While CNN & all the other mainstream media try to paint the university protests as "pro terrorism" (which they're not, they're literally anti-war protests.) Palestinians are being slaughtered by the minute.
Please don't stop speaking about Palestine.

What was considered peak masculinity back in the 2000s is now considered as little meow meow energy in 2024
This clearly shows how far we've progressed and become even more improved versions of ourselves.
As for this godly man, he's still as fiery and yet so sweet even two decades later, if not more, as he was all those years ago.

as a child there's nothing cooler than a kid who gets subjected to evil experiments and gains special abilities. it's even cooler if these abilities also cause unfathomable suffering to use/against others. children love stories like this.
