Anti-intellectualism has given people too much confidence on issues they know nothing about. You don’t know more about climate change than an environmental scientist, or more about disease than a virologist, or more about warfare than an actual soldier.

It’s anti-intellectualism and unlimited access to the internet and information they can’t understand the context of. It actually makes them more dumb because they think they are being enlightened, but it’s all useless junk in their heads piled up that they don’t really know how to process properly. They can repeat things though so they think they’re smart.
