Levance Fields Theory of the Big East Tournament 

Year after year in the Big East mens basketball tournament gamblers frequently are perplexed by the outcomes of the some of the games. A simple theory can be followed to help you handicap the games in the tournament -- pick the team with the most relevant player(s) from New York City. This theory is derived from Levance Fields, a point guard on the Pittsburgh Panthers basketball team who led his team to a Big East Championship in 2008. He grew up in Brooklyn, NY and played at Xaverian High School and hit big shot after big shot to lead Pitt to a Big East Crown.
In 2011, Kemba Walker from the Bronx, New York led Connecticut to a Big East Title by winning 5 games in 5 days. Kemba was the most relevant player in the Big East Tournament and led his team to not only 5 straight victories but also 5 straight wins against the spread thus proving the Levance Fields Theory of the Big East Tournament.

Theory of the Bullshit Spectrum

The theory that bullshit exists on a spectrum, not as a binary category. Bullshit, in the philosophical sense (following Harry Frankfurt), is speech intended to persuade without regard for truth—not lying (which cares about truth enough to negate it), but bullshitting (which doesn't care at all). The Bullshit Spectrum recognizes that claims can be more or less bullshit, in different dimensions, for different purposes. A politician's vague promise is bullshit—but maybe low-grade, situational bullshit. A conspiracy theory is higher-grade bullshit, more bullshit in more dimensions. The spectrum allows for distinguishing between different kinds and degrees of bullshit, rather than lumping everything dishonest into the same category.
Theory of the Bullshit Spectrum Example: "He called everything he disagreed with 'bullshit.' The Theory of the Bullshit Spectrum showed why that was useless: some things were more bullshit than others, in different ways. The politician's exaggeration was bullshit, but low-grade, situational. The conspiracy theory was high-grade, multidimensional bullshit. Treating them the same made it impossible to respond appropriately."

Theory of the Bias Spectrum

The theory that biases exist on a spectrum, not as a binary category of "biased" vs. "unbiased." The Bias Spectrum recognizes that all thinking is shaped by perspective, interest, and context—there is no view from nowhere, no pure objectivity. What matters is not whether bias exists but where it falls on multiple axes: how strong it is, how aware the thinker is of it, how it functions, what effects it has. The spectrum allows for distinguishing between different kinds and degrees of bias, for evaluating biases rather than simply naming them. A bias that's acknowledged and compensated for is different from one that's invisible and uncontrolled; a bias that serves understanding is different from one that distorts it. The Theory of the Bias Spectrum calls for mapping biases rather than just accusing.
Example: "He accused her of bias, as if that ended the discussion. The Theory of the Bias Spectrum showed why that was crude: everyone has bias. The question was where her bias fell on the spectrum—how strong, how aware, how distorting. The accusation wasn't an argument; it was just a label. The spectrum demanded actual evaluation."

Theory of the Basis of Existential Security

A social‑psychological theory arguing that individuals and communities require a foundation of existential security—freedom from chronic anxiety about basic survival—to develop tolerance, openness, and democratic values. When existential security is high, people are more willing to embrace diversity, trust institutions, and support progressive change. When security is threatened (by poverty, war, or instability), people retreat into authoritarianism, rigid identity, and hostility to outsiders. The theory explains why economic insecurity often correlates with political extremism and why stable welfare states tend to be more socially liberal.
Theory of the Basis of Existential Security Example: “The rise of populism wasn’t just about culture wars; the theory of existential security showed that communities with declining economic stability were more likely to turn against outsiders and democracy.”
