Dunning And Kruger Not Lewis And Clark Poem by Raj Dronamraju

Discovering America
Thinks it's smarter than it is
Assumes it is more than compEtent in any given situation when it is not

Discovering America
Over a glutton's overflowing bowl of waste
Thinks hedonism is exceptional and unlimited
Estimates its own intelligence as far above normal

Discovering America
Values identity above words and feelings above smarts
Does not recognize merit demonstrated in ability
Does not accept accomplishment unless it conforms with the newest prejudices

Discovering America
Is a land of poor diets and empty heads and empty back accounts, increasing paranoia and dissent
Sees flashy entertainment as more substantive than hard knowledge
Shows the self-confidence of the dumb every time they act
