  Why Stupid People Think They're...

  The Dunning-Kruger Effect is a cognitive bias in which people with limited knowledge or ability in a certain area overestimate their competence. It is named after social psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger, who first identified the phenomenon in a 1999 study. The effect highlights a curious and often frustrating contradiction: those who are least skilled in a particular domain are often the most confident in their abilities. This psychological phenomenon is not just a theoretical curiosity—it has real-world consequences for individuals and society. 
    
  At the heart of the Dunning-Kruger Effect is the relationship between self-perception and actual competence. It’s common for people to assume that their understanding of a topic or skill is more advanced than it truly is, especially in areas where they have little experience. This overconfidence stems from ignorance: when you don’t know what you don’t know, you are unaware of the gaps in your knowledge. In fact, research suggests that the less a person knows about a subject, the more likely they are to overestimate their abilities in that area. Conversely, those who are highly skilled tend to underestimate their competence, as they are more aware of the complexities and nuances of the field. 
    
  The Dunning-Kruger Effect also underscores the significant role that confidence plays in shaping how we perceive ourselves and others. Confidence is often mistaken for competence, leading people to believe that an individual’s self-assurance is a reflection of their skill or knowledge. However, confidence can be a double-edged sword: while it can motivate people to pursue challenges and opportunities, it can also prevent them from recognizing their own limitations. This creates a dangerous feedback loop where overconfidence leads to poor decisions and missed learning opportunities.

  Renowned by law enforcement and clinical mental health experts nationwide, Delete Me: D.S.M. 7 Steps to Social Media Abstinence, was formerly only circulated through DRUGFR33.ORG.  
  Swipe left. It's time to delete the social media disease. There are currently no specialized treatments for social media addiction and anxiety type conditions attributed to social media usage. Whereas most "remedies" for social media abuse call for "vacations", "breaks", and "parental surveillance" from the applications, Delete Me refutes these methods as ineffective. Fortune 500 IT consultant & engineer turned clinical mental health researcher & crisis intervention counselor, J.A. Thomas insists that we’re far better off abstaining from the applications altogether. J.A. Thomas, MSW, who is one of a growing army of industry experts going offline, offers powerful and personal reasons for all of us to abandon these treacherous online platforms. J.A. Thomas left a lucrative career in Big Tech in pursuit of investigating online crime with law enforcement. Now a critical crisis intervention counselor, Thomas hopes to foster transparent public health information surrounding the dangers of social media usage and its links to severe mental health conditions and the illicit online sex & drug trades. The methodologies introduced in D.S.M. 7 insist in total abstinence from all social media applications as key to driving us towards richer and more meaningful ways of living by connecting us back to the world beyond the tiny blue screen. 
  "Educational, engaging and life saving! J.A.Thomas sounds the alarm on the coercive and destructive force that is big social. This book will help you change your life for the better and allow you to proudly proclaim ... I'm offline." 
  -Dr. J. S. Kastendiek | M.D. Clinical Psychiatry 
  "This deserves the attention of all parents."
