ENTP

## About ENTPs

The ENTP, also known as the Extraverted Intuitive Thinking Perceiver, is a member of the formative initiating movement types. This personality type is focused on innovation, originality and progress, and is often called the "Visionary" or "Originator". ENTPs are also known as "The Innovator" because of their ability to constantly come up with new and creative ideas.

The ENTP personality type is known for its ability to change people's values in such a way that gives them better lives. This is because of their extraverted feeling child function, which makes them aware of how other people feel. Despite being accused of being harsh or abusive, ENTPs believe in telling the truth as it is, so that people can grow and make positive changes in their lives. They have a strong sense of sincerity and are motivated to burn away lies and falsehoods with their Ti parent function, which is focused on truth and logic. ENTPs and ESTPs both use their Ti parent to help people navigate the physical and metaphysical environment, make logical decisions, and improve their lives based on truth rather than tradition or how people feel. ENTPs strive to help others become the best version of themselves by providing them with the truth and burning away falsehoods.

## Social Engineering

Social engineering is the art of manipulating people to act against their own interests. Understanding the cognitive functions of the ENTP personality type is essential in gaining their trust and support. The hero function of extraverted intuition and the inferior function of introverted sensing are particularly important.

It is worth noting that social engineering can occur in various scenarios, not just sexual abuse. ENTPs are vulnerable to social engineering and can be particularly susceptible when they perceive passion in another person's eyes. However, experienced ENTPs can be harder to con.
Emulating an INTJ personality type can increase compatibility and loyalty. To appeal to an ENTP's child function and value their intelligence and thoughts is crucial in getting around their critical parent function.

Faith is also essential to ENTPs, which is linked to their inferior function of introverted sensing. However, it is important to place faith in the right thing, as misplaced faith can have negative consequences. Chase shared a personal experience of being social engineered by a church, resulting in financial loss and homelessness and emphasizes the need to transform or remove corrupt church systems.

It is important to manage Stockholm Syndrome in minors who experience sexual abuse. Chase shared personal experiences of being sexually abused as a child and manipulated as an adult, emphasizing that Stockholm Syndrome can develop in ENTPs and INTPs. It is important to verify the reality of the situation with an ENTP who defends their abuser, and not take their defense at face value.

Manipulation and social engineering can occur in any scenario, not just sexual abuse, and can be used to manipulate NTPs in marketing or financial situations. ENTPs are known for their sincerity or insincerity, which can make them great liars. ENFPs and INTPs are considered the most manipulative types, but all social interaction involves manipulation to some extent.
