We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.
Rules:
- No bigotry, anti-communism, pro-imperialism or ultra-leftism (anti-AES)
- We support indigenous liberation as the primary contradiction in settler colonies like the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Israel

I'm not familiar with any theories, but after watching only season 1, I liked it a lot. The metaphors for police/democracy/everything else and the parallels between The Game and The Real World are really obvious to a Marxist, but its got a lot of twists and turns and is fun in the moment even if what it has to say has been done to death.
I'll also say that Season 1 explicitly states that The Game was made up by American businessmen, who are portrayed pretty over-the-top and basically treat the Korean characters as cattle, so if they decide to go North Korea Bad in Season 2 that will be a big retcon.
