ABOUT: Internet etiquette, expectations, boundaries, and critical media theory about attention economy platforms and the toxic dynamics they normalize, especially the ones that make us feel responsible to Respond-On-Demand, i.e. Heidegger's concept "enframing" is brought up to talk about how we are made into a standing reserve for the pseudo recognition industry.

Welcome to the Theory Underground.

Theory Underground aims to make challenging philosophical and theoretical work accessible, not by summarizing, but by aiding those who seek to engage in this work as a way of life.

The website will be seeing big time improvements every day. If you want to help out, you can try using it and give me feedback at theorypleeb@gmail.com

If you take a course or join a discussion, there will be a group with dedicated forums on the website. Because fuck Discord. I want to honor quality questions, not bury them. I want to honor people who actually read as opposed to staying glued to their phones all day, so we aren't going to become reliant on a "community" app that is so attention-demanding. Forums give people time to think and come back later to ask questions or add to discussions.
