The 'Do Not Question the Elevated One' meme typically features a cat, a person, or an object positioned physically higher than others, radiating an aura of divine or absolute authority. It first gained traction in late 2018 and early 2019, often associated with surreal memes or shitposting communities. The humor stems from the dramatic, pseudo-religious phrasing used to describe a mundane or silly situation, such as a pet sitting on a stack of cushions or a person standing on a slightly raised platform. It is widely used to mock self-importance or to ironically claim a position of unassailable logic and power in online arguments.
