    What are you talking about? LIEs have the coolest one! They're practically Captain Planet.

    - The Entrepreneur (LIE): the creator of everything is living nature. This sociotype animates nature, itself becoming a dualist i.e. recognizing in equal measures the material and the idealistic beginnings that unite in the natural realm.

    Actually, what I got from the LIE description is that they view things in terms of the world just being what it is. It is what it is and it'll go the way it goes. Nature in the sense of the natural world just functions the way it will. 'Animating nature' is just another way of saying they make the most of what naturally occurs, and so they just make the best of a situation.

    I actually think it's a really good depiction of typical LIE mentality assuming I interpreted it correctly.

    Cogs in the machine...literally. There are some cool LIEs but I have to say, the mentality is creepy and vile.
    But, for a certainty, back then,
    We loved so many, yet hated so much,
    We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...

    Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
    Whilst our laughter echoed,
    Under cerulean skies...

    In a lot of descriptions LIEs are painted as having a romantic and imaginative side too that becomes vitalized with action and innovation, similar to EIEs just more practical and logical-process-oriented (much less so ILEish principle-seeking), which is why they can be wild risk takers, far-fetched planners, and not as 'down to earth' as ESTxs. But more than not they easily manifest an out-of-the-box style of thinking when trying for the most effective solutions, that should be more workable to them in the moment than to others or that a general knowledge is, like inventing a technique on the spot that others may not have thought of and eventually copy. So they are in this sense connecting process knowledge to a larger picture that is not always so traceable in reality, but just as much in their ideals and fantasy (and so even though it doesn't always work out for them, they remain thinking in the same ideal direction.) However I can't exactly interpret Gulenko's meaning here; it's not contradictory and could match up well in essence, but also a bit vague.

    Yeah LIEs can be ballers...when they aren't living with their parents.

    But, for a certainty, back then,
    We loved so many, yet hated so much,
    We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...

    Yet even then, we ran like the wind,

    Not sure. You may not be quite articulating it clearly, but I don't really jibe with what you're saying there.
    Actually, after reading it again, I'm starting to think it may have more to do with just life, but.. I just noticed that all the other descriptions basically say "the world is ruled by x." The LIE description seemed to be saying that LIE tries to take the world for what it is. It isn't ruled by anything other than what just happens. Shit goes down no matter how you think about it, and you do the best you can to work with it.

    "Whether it makes sense or not and whether it is good or not doesn't really matter. All that really matters is that it is what it is and what we want to do about it."

    @Gilly
    I don't mean the mentality is about perpetuating whatever is happening or that there is no sense in changing things if that's how you understood me.

    No, I didn't mean that specifically; rather that they see it as futile to go against what they see as "natural order," and the unfortunate resignation that comes with such an attitude.
