>John von Neumann was a pioneer in building the mathematical framework of quantum physics, in the development of functional analysis, and in game theory, introducing or codifying concepts including cellular automata, the universal constructor and the digital computer. His analysis of the structure of self-replication preceded the discovery of the structure of DNA.
>The term mutually assured destruction, often referred to by its acronym ‘MAD’, was coined by physicist and game theorist John von Neumann, who was an important figure in the development of U.S. nuclear devices. Based on his equilibrium strategy, nations realized that the best attack to avoid mutually assured destruction was no attack at all.
>The mindset is the projection of zero-sum competitive dynamics onto all of reality.
>"My interests vs. everyone else." The division of the world into "winners" and "losers."
>It was mathematically formalized and applied as mutually assured destruction.
>It infected economics as "too big to fail" and politics as "too big to jail."
>It infected the infosphere as "lies too big to unveil."
>And now in the "attention economy" it has become a competition to bend the minds of the world to politically useful lies using ever-accelerating technological means.
>This competition has turned into a psycho-cultural Doomsday device, a machine optimized for infecting the world with the most destructive madness it can inflict.
