Dunning-Kruger Objectivity Bias

A meta-bias where people with the least expertise in a subject are the most confident that their perspective is the unbiased, objective one. Because they don't know enough to understand what they don't know, they mistake their own ignorance for a clean, uncontaminated vantage point. Experts, weighed down by complexity and nuance, seem "biased" to them precisely because experts acknowledge uncertainty and competing interpretations. The Dunning-Kruger Objectivist believes their empty cup is actually the clearest lens.

"I'm not a historian, so I can look at this war objectively without all that academic bias," tweeted a guy who learned about the conflict from a viral meme. Dunning-Kruger Objectivity Bias: when ignorance cosplays as clarity.
