*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."

An effort by any organization to flush out the deeply entrenched morons far up the proverbial leadership tract.
After years of slowly eroding into a complete shell of itself the CEO of the company brought in a team of driven and intelligent performers to perform a high moronic and rid the group of idiots that had driven the place into the ground for years.

Mirror Morons (noun): A term coined to describe individuals who engage in foolish or unintelligent behavior as a result of being excessively influenced by the actions of others, akin to the concept of mirror neurons. These individuals exhibit a remarkable susceptibility to mimicry, often disregarding their own rationality and blindly imitating the actions and decisions of those around them.
Mirror Morons tend to forego critical thinking and independent judgment, instead relying on social cues and the behavior of their peers to guide their own actions. This phenomenon often leads to a lack of personal responsibility and a disregard for potential consequences, as Mirror Morons prioritize conformity and acceptance over individual reasoning.

"Did you see those Mirror Morons at the mall yesterday? They started climbing on the display shelves just because a few others were doing it, completely ignoring the store's staff telling them to stop."
