It's a complete misunderstanding of evolution as something where species "level up" to become "more evolved", usually seen as more complex, stronger, faster, smarter, etc. But in reality, evolution is adaptation to environment by the process of natural selection. As long as you're surviving (or more accurately your genes), you are "evolved". This is no more or less true for humans, snakes, or Salmonella bacteria.
