the secret is not to interact with society.

My ISTP cousin read some shit about psychology and now suddenly thinks himself to be a psychologist of sorts, going as far as imagining working in that career as a side business, saying how everyone he talks to are his "experiments", saying how he stays around with completely retard and shitty people because he enjoys seeing how he can "manipulate them using mind tricks"...
Is this normal behavior for some of them? I'm an INTP and this is honestly heavily making me cringe, especially since personally I'd never be claiming shit like that unless I knew I've done enough proper research on whatever I'm about to claim.

I'm an INTP who used to be like you. I think two things changed that:
1) mushrooms
2) changing departments at the university
Regarding the latter, I think if you somehow find a group of people who give genuine uptake to your ideas it's a lot easier (and more importantly fun) to express them. Regarding the former, I think ego-loss makes you a lot less self conscious. Normally when I mulled over an idea I debated it in my own head and only revealed my opinion to other people once this personal "debate" converged on some point. After mushrooms I felt a lot more comfortable just doing this process out loud, which makes a huge difference. I'm no longer self conscious about my own thought process (or of the prospect of being wrong or careless) and for the most part normans respond to any kind of confidence with acceptance, even if it's unwarranted. Note that it's not that I'm confident in my half-baked ideas now, but rather that the prospect of being wrong or rescinding on an opinion in public doesn't worry me anymore. Mushrooms - I'd strongly recommend them for INTPs in particular

what would an ENTP with high social anxiety look like function wise?

I've known people who say this shit too and it always seems like a massive cope. Like usually it's people who act like the very people they claim are stupid - I think it's an attempt to rationalize the fact that they genuinely like being around stupid people

What makes you think society couldn't function without them? I mean society as is certainly couldn't, but that's because it's designed by and for SJs in the first place. I could easily imagine some alternative, utopian, epicurian-style NT (and maybe NF) commune society without a single SJ in sight.

What do you think is the most charismatic type and what makes it so charismatic?
