SEI ~~

[mu4]

Dana Immanuel - SEI sp/sx (Fe-sub?)

I don't think subtype, I think maybe SLI or subtype.

[silke]

I've seen a couple of her other videos and she seems very lighthearted and emotional, which is characteristic of the Fe-subtype. Sp/sx can look like Si at a cursory glance (self-pres instinct and Si descriptions overlap at multiple points, PistolShrimp has even posted a thread asking how to tell the two apart).



Here's another SEI (Fe-sub sp/so 9w1) - Shane Smith, the CEO and co-founder of VICE

[mu4]

I've seen a couple of her other videos and she seems very lighthearted and emotional, which is characteristic of the Fe-subtype. Sp/sx can look like Si at a cursory glance (self-pres instinct and Si descriptions overlap at multiple points, PistolShrimp has even posted a thread asking how to tell the two apart).

I thought he was Si-SLI actually as well. They are gregarious and affable in nature vs the more stoic subtypes and can be quite outrageous in expression.

VICE is also a very aristocratic magazine in it's structure and community, it started as a DIY sort of thing as well which is very characteristic of Delta. Alpha is more organizational in nature.

Also many of the stories that are featured in VICE delves into are either devaluing or minus ala Delta. The situations presented are uncomfortable, unpleasant and generally not very friendly. This is the core center of the magazine. I will contrast this with Anthony Bourdain's show(ILE) who ends every single episode with a community dinner either with a family or a block party of some sort. It doesn't matter where it is, almost every single episode ends with him eating with a family, eating what everyone eats and enjoying that sense of community and family. And that is the difference between the shows. Bourdain's show is basically about how you can go anywhere in the world, sit down on some day, get a group of people together from the community, from the family and have a dinner and how this meal brings everyone together. This is an universal, democratic, valuing aesthetic and motif that characterizes Alpha thinking.

I don't know about Dana Immanuel, but I don't think VICE or Shane Smith characterizes this, his motif is to take a topic or subject as far apart as possible as well as trying to keep himself as independant as possible, it's anti-community building and his work delves more into provoking moral outrage or some sort of outrage. What community Shane does build is small, cliquish and insular. Also imo a lot of the ideas the magazine promotes are simply conservative redneck ideas sold to hipsters.

I would like your thoughts on this since I think we have a different way to identifying in the 2nd function.
