Seems like every dictator is Beta. I challenge someone to come up with a non-Beta dictator.
For extra points, think of a non-Ni/Se dictator (I'd be really interested to see what people come up with for this one).

Was was the name of that SLE-looking SLI guy Expat used to talk about?

How about the US government? Seems very Delta to me, which, of course, means that they need to get out of my quadra.
But, of course, by "dictator", I'm sure you mean "the head of some coercive organization who didn't have to ask the rest of the organization permission before he did something".
I'll agree with jxrtes on Augustus, I think (though my knowledge of him is a bit limited).

Yeah, I think most would agree with that.
Okay, but I mean dictatorship in the general sense of the term.Such as 3/4 of anyone who's ever inherited a kingdom or an empire from their parents, pending the level of veracity of the equal distribution assumption. A kingdom is a sort of dictatorship depending on who you ask.
Essentially, yes. Although, ****** initially used legit means. It was only when he gained power that he began to close off the very entity/entities that secured him power in the first place.

What about the evolution of intersubjective thought about the state - it wasn't a case of "yesterday we were free, and now the state has stepped in and taken our freedom by force". There are social contracts; people agree to exchanges, and those who cannot protect themselves offer something in return for protection.
Fair point. I s'pose the question is too open-ended.
If so, I'm Donald Duck.
ISFj , no doubt.
Base he made good deals with the American government, in spite of the background. Conservative views, supported religion.
Creative ask the old Spanish people.
Intertype relations: in WWII, Spain and Germany were about to make an alliance, but all this fell apart when ****** (ENTp) met Franco (ISFj). All the Spaniards know that ****** said Franco was "unpleasant" and he didn't want to see him again.

To me, creative is about going to the gym, being ruthless, killing people to accomplish your goals...that sort of thing.
Por cierto, no sé si estás al tanto de lo que pasa por aquí por la península ibérica o si te importa o no. Hace unos meses echaron por la tele este documental sobre una hipotética victoria de la república en la guerra civil. Si te gusta culturizarte...

While some dictators worked methodically for much of their life to attain the position, others kind of "stumbled" into becoming dictators, or were more or less appointed by others.
Among those accidental dictators I'd put Oliver Cromwell, who I guess-type as a gamma.
Also, many of the old Eastern European Communist dictators seem to have been put in place by the Russian Communist Party. The selection process I guess would probably not favor Betas more than Communist minions from other quadras.
