In one of Q's posts last night, Game Theory was mentioned again.  This has been in several earlier Q posts, and I never really understood what game theory meant.  While I suspect someone else has already explained this to the group, there are more people joining the ranks of this thread.  So I thought that I would share what I found.

[Game Theory] has a central theme of complications that arise between two entities who can reason through each others success rates and expected moves.

"This dilemma, you realize with dread, is general:

you must do what your pursuer least expects;

but whatever you most expect her to least expect is automatically what she will most expect.

You appear to be trapped in indecision. All that might console you a bit here is that, on the other side of the river, your pursuer is trapped in exactly the same quandary, unable to decide which bridge to wait at because as soon as she imagines committing to one, she will notice that if she can find a best reason to pick a bridge, you can anticipate that same reason and then avoid her."

In the context of China's War against us, we know they have blackmailed and have had control over a vast portion of critical American points of interest. With this, they knew what strings to pull to achieve victory [of subversion] and had the capacity to execute that leverage.

This made decision making easier for them.  Consider now, what leverages they have lost:

Think CEO departures.

Think FBI departures.

Think DOJ departures.

Think State departures.

Think WH departures.

Think DIA departures.

Think Pentagon departures.

Think Senate departures.

Think House departures.

Think Amb departures.

Think IG departures.

Think Judge install.

Think SC install.

Think WH install.

Think FBI install.

Think C_A install.

Think DOJ install.

Think US ATT install.

…………….

Game theory.

If you look you can see.

Q

 

For each departure China lost leverage and America gained it back. A Zero Sum game.

Now what must China take into consideration before they make any moves? Uncertainty exponentially raises~

To the point of certain failure, should they attempt anything.

In fact what companies we couldn't trust before, may now be trusted if we know China lost its hold on them.

Checkmate.

We are winning far more than we know. May God Bless Americas Military Intelligence.

Excellent. I've been waiting for a post like that.

I was confused by game theory and never did understand it and why Q posted it.

I understand now, and definitely understand it in the context of that post.

Thank you, goodman.

Everything I know about Game Theory I learned from The Princess Bride:

great post, Al!

game theory!

Great post! Thanks.

Another facet of game theory: Finite game vs. Infinite game.

A finite game ends. Chess. Football. There are rules for winning.

An infinite game does not end. What is the object of an infinite game? To keep playing? What if [they] know the game is infinite and we don’t. [They] win by wearing us down, by getting us to give up.

Are we in an infinite game? In many respects, I’d say yes.
