Dunning-Kruger on the Rise

One reason why I suspect that Dunning-Kruger is on the rise (in all areas, not just wrt vaccines) is because advocates for all causes (in their need for credible corroboration) and the media (in its thirst for sensational opinions) so often accept false claims of “expertise” if it either supports their view or makes claims that are sufficiently outrageous
