on reddit someone said the stupid people(magats, conservatives), often are "stupidly confidant" because they are unaware that thier views and motives are wrong, so they assume they are in the right most of the time. even a Law school/MD can lack smarts in many areas, despite being book smart.

No one is good at everything. I reckon the people sucked into MAGA were the people with no skill in bullshit detection.

Credulous people.

That's a different axis to any other category of smart, though so many are also stupid
