Hmm just noticed IDW article didn’t mention Nick Land. Wonder why. “Dark Enlightenment” seems to be a similar use of Dark as a capitalized adjective and there’s definitely a genealogical pathway there. 🤔

Not sure. Dark in enlightenment referred to scary/horrifying conclusions of the ideology. Dark in dark web refers to the hidden, not seen cluster of people/ideas. Former coined by Land, latter by Weinstein who has no connection to him

Well, Land actually is too dark for the NYTimes. Most of the people written about in that article are excruciatingly bland figures, "dark" compared to David Brooks I guess.
