D.ignorance
Hint: It's a word with 9 letters, starting with "I".
Answer
ignorance
Why this is the answer
The official answer is ignorance -- being blind to the truth about others and unaware of one's own blind spots -- though the line "I think I'm better than you" arguably fits arrogance or pride even more closely; the source's stated answer is used here since willful ignorance often produces that same dismissive, superior attitude.
