But ignorance is only really appreciated in retrospect.

When the ignoramus is contemporary, he knows he's right. He's thinking what all the smart modern people are thinking. Of course he's right.

And any idea that contradicts him (and contradict the modern, right-thinking majority) is clearly foolishness.

So maybe it's the modern right-thinkers that we need to be wary of.

IT's the Dunning-Kruger effect - people with limited knowledge or competence in a given intellectual or social domain greatly overestimate their own knowledge or competence in that domain relative to objective criteria. And they tend to only value the criteria that validate their own points of view. What we really lack is the eagerness to know all sides of an issue and take them into account.
