How do you respond to the fact that MB tests were designed as a parlor trick by a pair of unqualified authors with a eugenicist streak and a firm misunderstanding of Jung? And before you respond with weasel words, Myers was never cagey about her inspiration being famed eugenic bastard William Grant Hague.
"Multitudes of people are utterly worthless or worse than worthless, having no just claims whatsoever upon the civilization which they burden with the dead weight of their existence. This is a sound, incontrovertible judgment, which has to be shunned, because our feeling for the ‘underprivileged’ is so strong that such truths can hardly be mentioned."
So how do you, uh, reconcile the fact that your field is just eugenics laundered through a lens of "empower yourself!"
