The 'Harry Potter Chess Scene' meme, also known as 'Not me, not Hermione, you,' originates from the climactic Wizard's Chess match in 2001's Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. In this scene, Ron Weasley realizes he must sacrifice his position on the board so Harry can checkmate the King and move forward. The meme captures themes of self-sacrifice, delegation, or identifying the 'chosen one' who has to handle a difficult situation while others remain safe. It gained massive popularity across social media platforms like Reddit and Twitter, often used to humorously assign tasks or blame in group projects, gaming squads, and corporate environments.
