More and more I am starting to believe that the greatest threat to modern humanity is the Dunning-Kruger effect. It acts very much like a highly contagious virus (largely due to social media) and is either directly or indirectly responsible for the death of likely millions, maybe more.
It's possibly a genetic failsafe intended to rid the gene pool of stupid people that we have over-ridden with modern science, ironically.
