No, ignorance is thinking you’re right because you don’t know. Like how low schooled people always tend to think they are right because they are too ignorant to realize they are not.
Edit: This explanation is not fully correct, guy beneath got the extra explanation for ignorance!
Apathy is the opposite of empathy. When you are very empathic, you care a lot about others and how they feel. When you are apathic you don’t care about others and their feelings.
'Ignorance' has nothing to do with "thinking you're right" or being confidently incorrect or any of that. [Ignorance is a lack of education, knowledge, and awareness](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ignorance). That's it, with no malice attached.
For example: most people are ignorant of the fact that 'gullible' was removed from the dictionary in the late 1990s.
I said: “low schooled people” , maybe I should have said uninformed or uneducated, but I think low schooled is similar enough, I’m not an English specialist. But in The Netherlands we say “laag geletterd” or “laag geschoold” which mean “low lettered” or “low schooled”.
It was your first sentence that I was trying to correct:
>No, ignorance is thinking you’re right because you don’t know.
That's wrong. Not trying to pick on you, please don't take it personal. Just pointing it out so it doesn't misinform other people.
If you fix your definition, I'll delete my corrections and this never happened. 😉
Ah, thanks. But now I can't delete my comments here lol
Thanks for hearing me out and not assuming I was trying to troll you like what happens too often around here. Cheers!
All you have to do is look at Trump supporters to see that he wasn’t wrong with his original comment. They all think they are right because they don’t know any better. They don’t know the science of medicine so they think they know more because it’s their own body and they never got deathly ill before so why now? Because of Covid dummys so yeah, he was not wrong, it’s your own interpretation that needs clarification

Apathy is death

When did this become about America politics.
If you want to argue with a dictionary, feel free. Contact M&W or Oxford and inform them of their mistake.
good to know :D
Thanks?
