    Default Derek from American History X

    Hello,

    well, maybe the question is a bit silly...

    I recently developed socionics and I would like to vizualize ESTJ. Therefore I would like to know, if you think, "Derek" of "American History X" could be an ESTJ?
    What do you think?

    Haven't seen it in a while but I thought he was Beta. I remember his girlfriend seemed SLE.

    Thank you for the answer. Why Beta?

    @ArchonAlarion

    Did you watch the film? Or do you just know that it`s "about nazis"?
    Would you feel better if I delete the picture?

    Highly rigid internally-consistent circular logic, lots of group oriented ideology, intense emotional reactions to having that ideology questioned. Beta at its worst. I don't remember many details though.

    I watched, and somewhat enjoyed the film.

    Would you feel better if I delete the picture?
    No.

    Doubt it, I haven't seen the movie but I've watched a few clips on youtube. I'm not in a brilliant position to argue so I'll leave that to everyone else.

    IMO if you want to 'visualise' LSEs you should go to Stirlitz and Sherlock Holmes (mainstream Russian typings) then work your way up.

    How would an ESTJ be compared to Derek?

    I agree.

    And I agree.

    Very very different.
