The Midwit meme, also known as the IQ Bell Curve meme, gained massive popularity on platforms like 4chan and X around 2018. It features a standard normal distribution graph with three distinct characters: a 'Brainlet' representing the low-IQ range, a frustrated 'Midwit' in the average range, and a hooded 'Jedi' figure for the high-IQ genius. The humor stems from the irony that the low-IQ and high-IQ individuals often arrive at the same simple conclusion, while the Midwit gets trapped in overly complex or pretentious reasoning. It has become a staple for critiquing pseudo-intellectualism and highlighting the value of common sense or deep wisdom over superficial complexity.
