The Introverted Thinking Types

Destructive ISTPs are cold, self-destructive, and indulgent. They can be ruthlessly logical, but in
pursuit of their own pleasure and at the expense of anyone who gets in their way. They ignore
their moral compass and have no concern for the welfare or feelings of others. They keep to
themselves and scorn attachments to other individuals, only seeking to get ahead or enjoy
sensational thrills even if it harms themselves or others in the process. They become
calculating and selfish, easily angered by anyone who seeks a foothold in their life. Evil ISTPs
can be the perfect mercenaries, using their hands-on skills to find wealth or sensory
experience, even if it means destroying another life.

Healthy ISTPs: Healthy ISTPs are independent, analytical, and fiercely objective. They are
excellent problem-solvers and they have an easy-going “live and let live” mentality. They are
realistic and honest, easily seeing past facades and bravado. They may not be very expressive
about their feelings, but they will seek to give everyone around them freedom to live their life as
they see fit.

The Destructive INTP

1/9
Evil INTPs are haughty, careless, and so absorbed in their own world and ideas that they
ignore and neglect the people in their care. They look down on “the mass” for being less
intellectual or “enlightened” than they are. They avoid responsibilities and ignore loved ones,
drifting into their own isolated world. Anyone who tries to join them in their world is shunned
or treated with silent passive aggression. They ignore any kind of moral code; everything is
about cause and effect and experimentation. They may even toy with people just to see what
happens; using them like tools or objects to use and cast aside. They are harsh with their
words, caring little about their affect on others. They don’t care what anyone else does with
their lives as long as they are left to their own devices.

Healthy INTPs are curious, creative, and logical. They are open-minded towards others and are
driven to explore theoretical concepts in great depth. They are objective, fair, and non-
judgmental. The healthy INTP thinks outside the box, forms innovative connections, and is an
excellent problem solver. They balance careful logic with a quiet concern for the feelings of
others.

what’s best for everyone, and that their way is the only way. They suppress their moral
compass and disregard the feelings and values of other people in exchange for their own rigid
views. They push forward to achieve their goals, but instead of taking time to reflect on their
decisions, they steamroll over everyone in their path in order to accomplish tasks without
considering alternate viewpoints or the moral implications of their actions. They may be loyal
to a corrupt system or authority and suppress anyone who stands against that authority or
questions it. They trust their own personal experience and disregard other people’s experience.

quick wits and cold hard logic as a weapon to humiliate and silence their opponents. They will
consider themselves above emotions and subjective “feelings”, but will become
temperamental and wallow in self-pity when things don’t go their way. They consider the
feelings and values of others stupid or silly and they are exceedingly proud of their logical
“superiority”. They like to control other people, and enjoy using their intuitive perceptions as a

condescending to anyone who doesn’t value their same vision or sense of logic. They may
even enjoy putting other people down, making sarcastic jabs, or otherwise belittling them.
They consider themselves above others, more enlightened or intelligent than the rest of
humanity. They believe their vision and forecast of the future is always right, and they
stubbornly hold to their perception without opening their mind to other viewpoints. They are
agitated and vindictive with anyone who critiques or gives another view that contradicts their
own. Destructive INTJs may seclude themselves from the rest of the world because they are
so disappointed in their fellow man. If they don’t do this, they may try to micro-manage and
overly control the people in their own lives, forcing them to obey a strict set of commands. If
they have a corrupt vision, they may be swift and terrifyingly effective at creating plans that are
disastrous for the good of humanity.

The Destructive INFJ

The destructive INFJ is manipulative, scheming, and self-righteous. Above all, they seek to
fulfill their vision for the future. They will go to any lengths to reach this vision, even if it means
deceit, underhanded deals, and trickery. They justify what they do because in their mind “the
end justifies the means”. They often consider themselves better and more broad-minded than
others, and thus conclude that any input from the outside world is silly and shallow. They live
in their own subjective fantasy world and stop attributing value to human interactions. People
are to be used to reach their end goal. If they hurt people along the way they’ll try to stifle any
sense of guilt they might feel. They will try to escape those people so they don’t have to
actually confront their own wrongdoings. In their close relationships they may be passive
