This is grasping at straws. I am no alt-right apologist and consider myself quite the democratic socialist. Even from my point of view, it seems like this is nothing more than a vilification of the social discourse.

Would Sir Roger Scruton, The Cambridge Centre for the Study of Platonism and the Ralston College be considered part of the "Intellectual Dark Web" for hosting Jordan Peterson? (I'm not well versed in Peterson's career, this is the latest video on his youtube channel).

Perhaps Channel 4 News is also part of the conspiracy for hosting him on TV. Channel 4 is operated by Channel Four Television Corporation which is a public corporation of UK's Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport. Does that means that the UK is at the head of the "dark intellectual web"? ...

I'm obliviously kidding, but there's no limit on how far you can spin this situation.

Thanks for answering. I'm leaving it at that, now I know more but this is not a rabbit hole I want to dive in any further.
