    Ne-IEE or NE-ILE, I can see him as my identical, but Kindred is possible as well. I do like the man, but the thing with David Icke is that he has some great ideas that may not be considered politically correct and a bit out there, but they could possibly be true. However, he has some terrible ideas with little to no basis in reality and it unfortunately ruins his reputation and results in many people discrediting all of his ideas including the good ones that are logically sound. Best way to learn from someone like him is to be able to filter out the nonsense because there is a lot of good knowledge that you can gain from him if you are open minded enough to consider his good ideas, but skeptical enough to ignore his bad ideas.

Icke is a great example of Ne-dom out of control, to the point where they disregard grounded reality and live in a world of their own creation. they are simultaneously open-minded and close-minded; they will believe in the most fantastical concepts (flat earth, reptilian government) but can't wrap their heads around evidence to the contrary of their beliefs—it just goes right through them. dissenters are regarded as "trolls" and "shills", dehumanizing and stripping them of credibility.

    i've noticed that a lot of Ne-doms are vulnerable to conspiracy theorist bullshit, like what David Icke has come up with. he's practically the conspiracy theorist messiah. from my own experience, conspiracy theorists seem to be primarily unhealthy ILE and IEE types. "What the Government Doesn't Want You To Know" is perfect bait for them... they accurately perceive that something is wrong, but draw ridiculous conclusions from their observations. a lot of them seem to believe they are somehow better than the "drooling masses" (expect a lot of rambling about "the Sheeple") for disregarding sensory activities, like sports and watching TV. they view them as distractions, entertainment for 'lower' minds. and then they wonder why people give them weird looks...

    yes, i'm very familiar with conspiracy theorists.
    As an Ne-dom that believes that some conspiracy theories may possibly be true, but rejects the vast majority of them, perhaps I can offer my input on this with a perspective on how an Ne-dom approaches conspiracy theories. The truth about conspiracy theories is that some are possibly true, which is likely a very small percentage, maybe 1% of them or less. However, the vast majority of them are complete hogwash with no basis in reality. You need to have the right amount of open mindedness, but also be simultaneously skeptical to arrive at the truth.

    There are a lot of conspiracy theories that can easily be chucked out the window without a second thought: flat earth, reptilians, etc... However, there are a few conspiracy theories that "might" possibly be true, but require extensive investigation before drawing any conclusions. Most of the time what happens at least for myself is that I end up chucking out the majority of conspiracy theories after a few days. There is that initial honeymoon ("oh wow, this might be true") phase, and then after the skepticism starts to kick in within a few days and I pretty much chuck it out the window into the trash.

    However, a few conspiracy theories have enough evidence to last past that phase and they get put into the indeterminate category ("might possibly be true, but can't fully accept it or reject it"). The thing with Ne-doms is we live in a world of possibility and we can't fully reject an idea that might possibly be true even if it's not accepted as true in society. However, we can't fully accept it either because it's clear that there is not sufficient evidence that makes it obvious. This is why being an Ne-dom like myself is basically living in a world of maybes, full of doubt with some things that profoundly affect how we perceive reality.

    Most things end up being fully rejected if they are too outlandish and things that are commonly accepted as facts by everyone is obviously easy for us to accept. However, there are some things that are put into indeterminate category, which we leave it as a possibility to explore without fully accepting or rejecting it. I hope this give you some insight into how an Ne-dom like myself looks at the world around them. The problem with our society is that even believing in one conspiracy theory or perhaps thinking that a few conspiracy theories might be correct, you are put into the same category of someone who believes in almost every single conspiracy theory without much thought, which is very unfortunate.
