A friend at school was always being laughed at because his father emptied dustbins for a living. But those who laughed worshipped famous footballers. This is an example of our topsy-turvy view of 'success.' Who would we miss most if they did not work for a month, the footballer or the garbage collector?

this is true, however, i wouldn't frame it the same way as Icke. a lot of his ideas seem to carry a distinct undertone of contempt for society, and what we do (as a collective) to 'fit in'.
His concern and passionate involvement with what's going on with society is making me lean towards IEE for him. I was reading this discussion where another poster, Rick who types as IEE, has noted that ILEs ideas often have little relevance to society and people, which is why they are often forgotten and ignored. "An IEE, in contrast, has a strong inner sense of what things are important (i.e. have the potential to change society, culture, people, etc.)" in Rick's own words. This social observer and catalyst IEE role closely describes David Icke's approach rather than what's written about Alpha NTs on this forum.

I've also thought he could be 6w5 in enneagram. Apparently, this is the type most given to conspiracy theories and having paranoid thoughts (such as Icke's shape-shifting reptilians who are propelling humanity towards some kind of global catastrophe ).

[6w5s] Can brood over injustices to them, entertain conspiracy theories, spend time alone building cases. Paranoia in private. May like secretive behind-the-scenes group activity. Sneaky vengeance, passive/aggressive toward others, self-attacking and self-destructive at home.
