Jean Baudrillard MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Jean Baudrillard? Jean Baudrillard is an INTP personality type in MBTI, 5w4 - sx/sp - 548 in Enneagram, RLUEI in Big 5, ILI in Socionics.

I would say he is an IT(S) INTP. He seems to rely a lot on describing the nature behind particular events or institutions, rather than expanding his perspective. Moreover, he is more of a conservationist and anti-postmodern, viewing multiplicity as destruction and difference as a lie, his view about it contrasts with the one of Deleuze (which i think is more of an INFJ than INTP).
