People will shit on astrology and then gloat about MBTI like it's any different.
In astrology your sign is fixed based on a date. In mtbi your type is based on how you react to different questions in the 4 axis. So they are different to me in that regard. Now whether or not you give them any merit is another thing since they both pretend to be something they're not. But self reflection is good, and understanding yourself is good. Unfortunately in my experience the people who gloat about mtbi are usually pricks that do it less for the self reflecting and more just to excuse their behavior. At work i have a coworker who loves to bring up mtbi to justify their actions
