NYT's opinion piece on the Intellectual Dark Web

    Similar to the ongoing political polarization of the American public, there is a movement that aims to shake up the intellectual circle. Those in the front line are labeled as the Intellectual Dark Web (I.D.W). NYT recently published an opinion piece to describe the characteristics, motives, tactics, and venues of this group and its prominent members. Members of the I.D.W are unexceptionally internet phenomena, which speaks a lot about their effective maneuver of the net to reach out to a large audience.
