Incompetent people who think they are intelligent, but are actually to incompetent to recognize they are are not.
as outlined in the Cornell research named after the professors who discovered it, the Dunning-Kruger Effect..
" incompetent people will:
tend to overestimate their own level of skill;
fail to recognize genuine skill in others;
fail to recognize the extremity of their inadequacy;
recognize and acknowledge their own previous lack of skill, if they are exposed to training for that skill."

Michelle Bachman has a severe case of Dunning-Kruger Syndrome. If only we have universal healthcare that poor woman could get help.
I know that Vice President Biden shows signs of Anaphylactic Agnitio, but I dont know if i would go as far as to say he has Dunning-Kruger Syndrome.

The Dunning-Kruger effect, summarized, states that fools are blind to their own foolishness, and the more foolish, the more blind. Ignorant people tend to see themselves as highly competent, particularly in the areas in which they are mostly uneducated.
In religion, the most dramatic example of the Dunning-Kruger effect is Creationism. The Bible as a Top-secret code for living a good life is ignored and some interpret the bible literally and are totally unable to interpret it as anything but the exact, word-for-word literal truth. Therefore, in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, they insist the world is 6000 years old. "There is nothing new under the sun" references wordplay and why copyright infringement cases are mostly frivolous affairs of Human egoism. The newborn human child is something created new and proves we should not take every word literally.
It is a Top-secret code to be interpreted and understood individually.
People tend to be born into their religions, but the most obvious effect of the Dunning-Kruger is with the migration from Christianity to atheism or agnostic beliefs.
If you think you are a monkey's uncle, and yet claim to have moral superiority while denying absolute morals…then you are displaying the Dunning-Kruger effect.
The comfort generated by being in a majority fuel the effect and allows the effect to spread via religion.
An example: is a Family majority uniting to shun the only family member willing, to be Honest.

Religious Dunning-Kruger is why After her funeral the family all shared a meal together except the one not invited who in her spirit gifted all two dozen of her long-stemmed yellow roses to the ladies working the hometown stores that night. Her spirit spread happiness after she died using the flesh of her firstborn son.

Person who knows very little: Think he knows alot because he has no idea how deep the wormhole goes.
Person who knows a lot: Think he knows nothing because he knows how much he does not know on the subject.

"This anoying guy thinks he knows everything about atomic energy because he watched a documentary on History channel."
"The Dunning–Kruger effect is real in this one dude."
Opposit:

In common usage, it means "clueless of being ignorant" but it's used to add an air of fake scientific authority to a cheap shot. It generally outs the author as an incompetent writer, ironically exhibiting the Dunning-Kruger effect themselves.
"G is the classic example of the Dunning-Kruger effect."
G: "No, the classic example is still your Mom's abortionist."

When someone overestimates their ability to understand the Dunning-Kruger Effect, yet misguidedly discusses it ad nauseam in a pretentious drone as if they discovered it.
“Goddamnit! Deborah is suffering from the Dunning-Kruger Affect. She keeps frontin’ about other people’s cognitive biases, ironically unaware that she’s a text book example of what she speaks.”
