good question. some critics think people are doing bad experiments, and
then grasping at straws to explain the numbers.

i don't know what the answer is, but i think we need to focus more on
particle accelerators and scribling in notebooks.

Not sure if you're actually looking for an answer to this question, but here is one:

Dark matter does not seem to interact with EM at all, thus it is invisible. We can only detect it through its gravitational influence, meaning that so far, we can only detect it in very large quantities where we can observe its gravitational effects.

And ibably is all around us, we just don't know what to look for.
