Bad Subjects (more formally Bad Subjects: Political Education For Everyday Life and sometimes The Bad Subjects Collective) was a research collaborative that operated generally out of California as part of the open access electronic publishing cooperative EServer.org. Together, the collaborative created and published an online zine of cultural and political criticism to promote public education about the political implications of everyday life. It was founded at UC Berkeley in September 1992 as a collection of leftist critiques of identity politics and popular culture written by college students and published as a Gopher service. Bad Subjects may have been the longest continuously running publication on the internet.
