Hello! I am here to introduce the latest scandal because I'm a fool :biggrin:
There are quite a few factors that, when you put a lot of weight on them, contradict the importance of quadra thinking.
I) All 4 types in a quadra possess a different spirit aka temperament. E.g.: Mirrors completely oppose one another: SEE and ESI as Ep and Ij. That's yin and yang!
II) The demonstratives add further variety to this: Hugo's :Se: and Don Quixote's :Te: are like day and night. To another and to Alpha itself.
III) Blocked IMs are used for two quadras. Such as :Te::Ni: not being unique to Gamma, no: it is also present in the supposed contra-quadra Alpha, let that sink in. Thus, quadra values become less clear, also refer to III.
IV) Clubs pretty much break up quadra associations. IRL you do find artists, socialites, etc. in one place. Guess why duals are from very polar "realms" that don't overlap one bit.
V) Plainly, quadras create baseless xenophobia and are often used to distance yourself from somebody you just don't like, even out of non-socionical reasons.
VI) Even your conflictor has the same element strengths as your dual, just flipped around in the model. Only that difference keeps you apart. And oh! Your conflictor's dual is suspiciously similar to you.
VII) What you prefer (values) competes with what you can metabolize way too much to be ignored.
VIII) It's difficult to sum up the essence of quadras as types are so diverse. Saying Beta focusses on :Fe: alienates Maxim, Gamma on :Te: excludes Dreiser...
IX) There is no common goal for each quadra (except maybe Beta :lol: Jk), every type has their own mission and niche in life based on their 4D elements/ego block that are inevitably expressed and manifested.
X) Putting together quadras because of value/model-based duality alone isn't enough. If you had A+ relations with all other 4 members unlike with the rest of the socion it'd be fine! But like this, it is highly limiting and stifles the legitimate potential of for instance semi-duality (!), kindred, mirage, business, that might trump mirror and identicals in quality simply because they complement/compensate for your lacking elements while still providing common ground. Quadra distinction in general creates needless pessimism around certain relations that does not hold true to experience. I will still love Esenin because I can :love:
Consequently, we should either go way easier on the quadra idea or dare to completely abolish it which I advocate.
Now your turn. Add, agree, or criticize - Go.
