A new study of 2,000 U.S. adults shows dark web users report much higher rates of depression, paranoia, suicidal thoughts, self-injury and digital self-harm than surface web users.
The dark web exists to serve criminals, subversives, and paranoid people. Why else would someone go to the trouble of accessing a part of the internet with a worse user interface that requires additional work to access? There is a pre-existing filter for people who are mentally unwell.
Literally the study linked above. It is unlikely that being on the dark web causes significant mental illness in otherwise healthy people. Therefore, causality must flow the other way - mentally ill people (or those on the cusp of mental illness) are more likely to seek out the dark web
Once again you are incorrect, I’m actually not the moron whisperer placed on earth to make you a smarter better person. Perhaps a short book with large letters about critical thinking?
Unsurprising.

You win the most nescient comment I have read today. I long for the time when it filtered out people with narrow minded views like yourself.
Tell me how I am wrong - how else am I to learn?
Better yet, prove you’re right. Cite something.

Try again
Correlation does not equate causation.
