The Midwit Trap

To mock a midwit using their own bad logic to make an ironic argument in a way they would, but also in a way where most of them will actually agree lest they expose themselves to the wolves that are the other stupider less-aware midwits.

This works so well, because a vast majority of midwits are on the less-aware end and generally care more about agreeing with something they already agree with especially if many other midwits already agree they all agree with it!

Dissenters to the midwits ideals are thus automatically labeled, "bad" for X emotional, fallacious, or nonsensical reasons. Legitimate refutations of takes or disagreements are labeled as "hit-pieces". Anecdotal experiences with a single person from another disagreeing group automatically means that person and anyone who agrees with them is also "bad", etc. The reason The Midwit Trap works so well is to disagree with your agreeing yet mocking take is to open themselves up to the same "out group bad" mentality they and the others they surround themselves with have. This is The Midwit Trap.

An example of executing The Midwit Trap: Responding to a midwit online with "I agree." updoot and all, and then use the most openly blatantly stupid midwit logic they all would use to come to a conclusion that they would actually agree with. The trick here is the argument has to be so openly blatantly stupid/circular/hypocritical that even some of the midwits might notice. The trick here is it will never be the majority of the hivemind so any midwits who actually do notice and call you out, you can just turn around and throw them to the wolves that are the other 90% of midwits who were too dumb to get it. By doing this they will now be labeled as part of the out-group and therefore in the hivemind of the midwits, bad.

Where the kindest, sweetest, most attractive women reside. They love everyone and get down to J Biebs. If you ever need a place to crash, stop by the trap palace.

The trap palace is the place everyone wants to be and the girls that live there are the girls that every girl wants to be and every guy wants to have.

noob trap

An apparently reasonable in-game choice an uninformed (usually new) player can make, which is in fact subpar or even crippling. Often this becomes clear only a long time after the choice is made, by when it's irreversible.

A common feature of hardcore games is false complexity β€” an abundance of poorly explained mechanics and noob traps.

Show trapped

The dilemma of recognizing that a TV series has gotten really bad but has compelled you to continue watching because you need to see what happens.

I know Manifest is a terrible series but I have to know how it will. I'm totally show trapped.

Yellow Jackets got really dumb this season, but the central mystery has show trapped viewers everywhere.

-'You never watched Lost?'

-'No, I heard the ending pissed off fans and I didn't wanna get show trapped.'
