I think it's generally understood that people have varying degrees of self-agency. If you're the sort who doesn't believe in your own agency, that everything happens to you rather than you being largely in control, then when life hands you lemons you will consider yourself a victim.

In other words, the Dunning-Kruger effect is a by product of deep narcissism (as opposed to sheer stupidity or ignorance, making it a palatably sinister pathological fungal outgrowth, truly scary).

They say these anti social personality disorders only represent 1-2% of society, but I always try to look at the results of a society to infer the true percentage.

I’d say Nazi Germany had a particular anti social personality disorder at scale, over 50%.

I’ll let you guys infer where everyone else is at now days.

So half of reddit?

Maybe the HN delusions of grandeur effect is real after all

(...I like both, merry Christmas)

I'm not saying reddit doesnt have any uses. But /r/popular is not what it once was. Like imagine if HN was covered in memes and low quality content.

You're grossly underestimating

Its the DK effect in action.
