    The "Intellectual Darkweb" is absolute garbage! Alone, these people are intelligent speakers on a variety of topics - but the very act of stroking their egos and calling them intellectuals, is destined to have unintended consequences! Now everyone is talking "Philosophy" and "Consciousness" - while the accuracy of their commentary is hitting an all time low! You have Ben Shapiro starting his Sunday Special, Dave Rubin only talking in metaphors now, Sam Harris backing away from atheism in favor of psuedo intellectual jibber jabber - and I fear the worst for Peterson is still to come! Also - JOE ROGAN?!?!?! This guy is a key figure of this darkweb? The guy discredits himself verbally all the time! Outright saying "I'm a pothead so what do I know" - that's a direct quote!!! So don't attack me for saying - he IS A POTHEAD - why are people treating him like the savior of Western Civilzation!?!? And Bret Weinstein AKA Wine-Stain - an absolutely garbage human being - is also being propped up? Mr. Bernie Sanders Socialist who outright said he went to Occupy Wall Street hoping for a Faux-revolution of some sort - this old white wannabe anarchist - is your guy?!?! On what planet is any of this considered intellectual?!!? I mean I get it, 2016 election is over, the news is slowing down - but that doesn't mean you need to mythologize political commentators!!! COME ON!!!

    Would it be easier just not to watch them?

    Very NPC like thread.

    Of course you can't have rational people from different sides of the isle having a conversation.

    That goes against the idea that the other side is inherently evil

    Listening to these halfwits is bad enough but listening to a halfwit talking about these halfwits is way too meta for me.

    Seems OP doesn't know what the overhyped "dark web" is. It certainly -isn't- a bunch of youtube content creators of any political bent.

    Protip: If you don't like what some net personality said on youtube, how about 1. stating what they said specifically, 2. Stating your disagreement with it.

    The ad hominem cat calling in an attempt to bolster your own views is transparent, and without substance doesn't do much for your credibility.

    Protip 2: This is a discussion forum, not a video linking forum. Videos are great to accentuate arguments, not replace them.

    I don't know if this is from the dark web, but I saw it and was appalled:
