Appearance
The Intellectual dark web is a phrase coined by mathematician Eric Weinstein to describe a strand of contemporary political philosophy in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States that seeks to transcend the traditional left-right political spectrum.[1][2][3][4][5] The movement gets its name from its use of non-traditional methods of communication, such as YouTube and other social media platforms.[1][2] People associated with the intellectual dark web are particularly popular among young men.[1][3]
