An easier way to say Theory of mind.
In psychology, mental theory refers to the capacity to understand other people by ascribing mental states to them. This includes the knowledge that others' mental states may be different from one's own states and include beliefs, desires, intentions, emotions, and thoughts. Possessing a functional theory of mind is considered crucial for success in everyday human social interactions. People use such a theory when analyzing, judging, and inferring others' behaviors. The discovery and development of mental theory primarily came from studies done with animals and infants. Factors including drug and alcohol consumption, language development, cognitive delays, age, and culture can affect a person's capacity to display theory of mind.

The finest scientific theory since Einstein's Theory of General Relativity. Dariusz's Theory of Stock Picking says that people who trade for a living or endeavor to trade for a living would have been retired already if they were so good at it. "If they were such good stock pickers, they would have been retired already." -Dariusz
The MACD betrayed me, the stock went in the opposite direction. I should have listened to Dariusz's Theory of Stock Picking.

Dead Mall Theory posits a multifaceted critique of modern consumerism and the evolving landscape of digital and physical spaces. Drawing inspiration from the eerie aesthetic of the Backrooms and the nostalgic satire of vaporwave Micro-culture, it explores the decline of traditional malls as emblematic of broader societal shifts.
At its core, Dead Mall Theory echoes the sentiment of the Dead Internet Theory, suggesting that just as malls become "dead" when anchor stores vanish, online spaces are increasingly dominated by bots and AI-generated content, displacing genuine human interaction and agency. This convergence reflects the erosion of authentic connection and the commodification of both physical and virtual environments under the pressures of mass production and consumer capitalism.

I love walking along these halls, such a calming atmosphere but this place isn't making money so dead mall theory is in full effect. I have memories of playing in this spot at the arcade as a kid. Now the movie theatre is gone and the food court is half empty.

Furthermore, Dead Mall Theory incorporates critiques of
materialism highlighting the societal consequences of
prioritizing acquisition and consumption over meaningful
experiences and relationships. Recent events have
accelerated these trends, pushing more people towards
virtual engagement and rendering certain physical spaces
obsolete. What will thenext generation be lacking as a result?
In essence, Dead Mall Theory serves as a commentary on the
intersection of economics, technology, and culture,
illustrating how the decline of malls mirrors broader shifts
in societal values and the evolving nature of public spaces
in the digital age.
