Why is #GameTheory important?

Imagine the following game:

100 people are in rooms with two buttons, and .


No communication is allowed. Each person has to
choose one button to press.
If 50% or more press , everyone is released
unharmed!

If more than 50% press , then everyone is killed,


BUT everyone who pressed is tortured and
killed.

This game is a "big oof".

Lots of things work like this. An example that was


relevant for a lot of human history is groups of men
fighting in a battle.

As long as most of the men were brave and kept


fighting, they would win.

But if a few started running away, the army would rout


and be cut down.

Nash equilibrium in this genre of games is the bad


outcome. The one where everyone (or at least most)
are cowards, and the few brave people get extra
punishment for trying.

The #Woke takeover of Western society is this game.


The reality is now bad for everyone. But those who try
to stop it are especially punished. Too many people
were cowards when it mattered.
How can you modify this game so that the Nash
Equilibrium is not collective suicide?

There are various ways.

In history, when men fought hand-to-hand combat,


deserters would be killed, and those who fought
especially bravely would be rewarded.

That's what these are for


The military is full of these little fossils of game theory.
Ranks, medals, drill, unit insignia, songs, mascots,
ornate uniforms ... none of these are functional
weapons or defences.

They are there to solve various game theory


problems.

Medals and court-martials solve the problem where it's


Nash Equilibrium to run away in a battle.
