Got a cringe LinkedIn post?

Paste a LinkedIn URL — a post, an article, a profile. CringeLink reads it, looks at the images, and grades how midwit it is on six independent axes.

What is a midwit? Someone of middling intelligence who can't recognize their own intellectual shortcomings — not dumb, just not bright, but utterly sure they are. Midwit content goes along with the herd, parrots expert-consensus talking points, dismisses original thinking as "crazy," and signals intelligence rather than showing it. LinkedIn is its natural habitat.
