The 'Gestures Broadly at Everything' meme is a versatile reaction image often used to signal that a situation is overwhelmingly chaotic, broken, or nonsensical. While various versions exist, it is most famously associated with a screen capture from the TV show 'The Good Place,' where the character Michael gestures toward a neighborhood in distress. The phrase itself gained massive traction on Twitter and Tumblr as a shorthand for the collective exhaustion felt toward global events or personal misfortunes. It serves as a perfect visual metaphor for when there are too many problems to list individually, so you simply point to the entire world and say, 'Look at this mess.'
