Just a branch off thought I had when you said many people with PhDs have had Dunning-Kruger. In general, I think the way the term is used (especially online) is used incorrectly.

Everybody should experience Dunning-Kruger, it's part of the process of learning something. People who use it as an insult should be calling their accusee arrogant instead.

How does the post have anything to do with what you just quoted from the community rules?

I am trying to say the post has nothing to do with science.

Academia = Science ?

If one hasn't fallen victim to Dunning-Kruger, then they have not advanced their knowledge in any meaningful capacity.

Is this a science meme? Am I on Reddit?

Research related to National Defense are usually kept confidential, and corporations have an incentive to not share there research to maintain competitive with their competitors. Neither of these seem out of the ordinary regardless of where you are on the globe.

Even still. The US government funds various institutions that share their research publicly, so I am not sure where you are really going with this.

I wasn't aware that publishing peer-reviewed work for anybody to read was "gatekeeping".

Yes. People conducting cutting-edge research should receive suitable compensation. Don't see a problem with that.

I understand the distaste toward conservatism with current events. If you think that conservative = bad, then you have a very narrow frame of mind.

Is it surprising to you that people can spend their free time independent of their political paradigm?

It is not secret that the US has attracted talented academics for many years. I am sure that these kinds of advertisements are not new.
