description: "Eric Ross Weinstein is an American investor and podcast host. As of 2021, he was managing director for the American venture capital firm Thiel Capital. Weinstein coined the term \"intellectual dark web\" to refer to a loose network of public figures opposed to left-wing identity politics and political correctness, and has advanced what he claims is a theory of everything called \"Geometric Unity\". Geometric Unity has been met with skepticism by, and has had no measurable impact on, the scientific community."
