Perhaps I have looked on the wrong places, but actually the number of active INTJ bloggers is only a dozen or so. At least if you google "INTJ" and "blog". A lot more cold blogs out there. So I really don't think there are mistyped INTJ bloggers. Mistyped INTJs are something else, because a lot of people think they are creative, but creative and creative are two different things, just like you said. But those ISTJs wouldn't go out and write a blog about crazy ideas. The unifying theme for all the INTJs is: "I am really not crazy, I am normal - just an INTJ". And because MBTI is a theory which fits the reality quite well, and also provides answers to the question why people do what they do and why they are as they are, INTJs really like that system. Because a lot of them have really low interpersonal intelligence and couldn't do that naturally. Most S-Types think you cannot put them into a category so they ignore MBTI - at least those who I haved talked with.

So, INTJs are really rare - I don't know anyone else in RL who is like me - and I test very strong on all four factors towards INTJ. We all have shadow functions and aspects of other types - in some situations, I am a perceiver - but very much most of the time I am directed by the Judging function. Only real INTJs can understand what that means - that nobody else shares your kind of view of the world. But it is also true that INTJs tend to flock together also in the real life - like STEM jobs - but that is not the case for me. I am even an outsider among INTJs because 20 years in sale left their trace and I am a strong Jack Of All Trades which is also rare. But you can read more about that atwww.intjblog.de. At least the older post have an english translation. Because nobody reads my blog, I don't know if I should continue to write it - on the other hand, it is a kind of diary about my thougts being what I am.
