The Tim Allen Evolution Tweet refers to a viral social media post from August 2017 where the 'Home Improvement' actor asked: 'If we evolved from apes why are there still apes.' The post immediately became a target for internet ridicule and scientific corrections, as it fundamentally misunderstood how evolutionary branches work. Over time, the screenshot of the tweet transitioned into a versatile meme template used to represent 'galaxy brain' takes or intentionally flawed logic. It is frequently parodied by replacing the subjects with other absurd comparisons, making it a staple for shitposting and mocking celebrity commentary on complex topics.
