      All these people going "I'm a rational person, I make my decisions based on my logical reasoning rather than my emotions How do I know? Because someone asked me if I did and I said yeah"

      This is a rant I have a lot about "scienciness" and "opinion laundering" If someone just said "I think I'm a logical person and I don't get my feelings involved" you probably would give that self-assessment the very low weight it deserves

      But if you say it in a sciencey way, by filling out a lot of bubbles on a scantron and putting it in a machine that dings and tells you what your score was, you turn that *opinion* about yourself into a *scientific fact* (the fact that you have that opinion)

      A more honest version of this test would be if they contacted everyone else who knows you and made *them* take the test for you -- "Do *you* think Arthur is more like this and more like that" But that would take a lot more effort, and people really wouldn't like what they heard

      Not that that's objective truth either, of course, and Advanced MBTI Analysis goes into all this shit about "your true self vs. the person you want to be vs. what people see you as" (This is literally the same as the Sun/Moon/Rising signs in astrology)

      Like social science surveys pretending they're saying more than they are, sneaking in an argumentum ad populum You turn opinions into facts by asking a lot of people, then counting the people, turning the opinion into a number, and numbers are facts

      Btw, fun fact, this is why Chinese astrology comes off as so broad, saying everyone in the same year has the same "sign" They're not saying everyone born in the year 1985 actually has the same personality, your year sign is the equivalent of your Rising sign

      The sign gets more "accurate" as it goes from broader to narrower Your year-sign is your Rising sign (how people see you), your month-sign is your Moon sign (how you see yourself), your day-and-time-of-birth-sign is your Sun sign (who you really are)

      This makes a lot more sense -- the truest one being the one that's most specific to you and hardest to calculate and hardest to find people who share it with you But it's a marketing problem compared to Western astrology because no one knows it off the top of their head

      Fwiw, you are literally describing the exact thing you're doing with mbti. It happens a lot, honestly, and could be avoided if ppl did a little more exploring & a little less buzzfeed-nonsense reading. A good question to ask yrself, (imo fwiw anyway: do w/e you want) is...

      I mean, I don't actually care about defending either form of astrology or MBTI, I'm making fun of Chinese astrology in this very thread

          I don't think you care about defending it & didn't say or suggest that?
