The “Dark Ages” was a derogatory slur made up by the elites of the so-called “Enlightenment” period as a way of disparaging those that came before them (similar to how modern day atheists refer to themselves as “brights”). Most people that use that term today know only it’s negative aspects because that’s all they’ve been taught.
