Moron-Kruger Effect.

*not to be confused of Dunning–Kruger effect*

The Moron-Kruger Effect is a psychological phenomenon/cognitive blackhole, in which, the moron in question lacks sufficient information about a given topic and still chooses to argue as if they know it all.

Main difference between it and the Dunning–Kruger effect is that the moron actively chooses not to educate themselves and uses their previously stated arguments as I they were universally accepted.

4 notable stages of the Moron-Kruger Effect are:

• Indulging in a conversation about a topic that the moron knows/heard little or insufficient information about and shares their thoughts on it.

• When met with scrutiny, the moron will justify their takes as if they were misunderstood.

• The moron is easily enraged at the responses that they had received. Furthering his spiral into confusing misinformation with facts.

• Finally, the moron will now start to double down, knowing that they are in the wrong, yet they choose to not rectify previously made mistakes and will keep spreading misinformation.
"That guy thinks that all game developers are lazy because of the success of so-and-so and now they keep arguing about what they don't know about when proven wrong? That's the Moron-Kruger Effect!"

"My neighbor thinks 5G is cancerous because they heard it uses more power and now they think COVID-19 was a conspiracy!? Moron-Kruger Effect."
