Right y'are and as Pink Floyd'd have it--in a way we've been played cuz ALL sides of the moon are dark in the sense that the moon provides no illumination of her own, much as we'd like that to be the case. Darkness surrounds "her"--on the side we can't see (or meet!)--it's only what we project, we guess at what we don't know and will never view (certainly, those left in the dark).... So for those of us "in the know" and aware....the other side is just a screen and our ignorance about it matches THEIR ignorance 'bout all else. Meanwhile the laughin' grimacing, glowin' moon is our illusion too. Are we (on the "other side" "illuminated" though hardly illuminati!--the sun may reflect on us but nuttin' we can do can light up the DARK SIDE. (Can we fight it...in the dark? I wonder...) Anyways, the analogy is apt!
