A person who is so uneducated and illogical that they do not even know how uneducated and illogical they are.

These flat earthers are so convinced of their uneducated opinion that they don’t even realise how truly uneducated on the subject they are.
An absolute Kruger!

Darwinism in action? No I think Anti Vaxxers are an example Dunning Kruger Malthusianism. They see tried and tested disease prevention as deliberate infection.

The Downing-Kruger effect is like the Dunning-Kruger effect, but specifically exhibited by people with Down Syndrome. It may be more apparent than usual due to the “stubborn” personality type commonly associated with DS.
My roommate kept nagging me a lot by saying I needed to take NyQuil, even though I actually had pinkeye and it wouldn’t have helped any. I know he thinks he’s caring for me, but he really doesn’t understand what he’s talking about. It’s not his fault though; he has Down Syndrome, so this is just the Downing-Kruger effect in action.
