Slave Owner Game

The Slave Owner Game is the foundational diagnostic module of The Sovereign Games.

It names the recurring pattern in which individuals, groups, institutions, or cultures use deception, coercion, narrative control, guilt, shame, power, or violence to strip others of agency and turn them into tools, resources, or subordinates — often while claiming benevolent intent.

This is the central hub page for the Slave Owner Game.

Quick Summary

The Slave Owner Game is corrupted Game Theory: instead of mutual cooperation and voluntary exchange, one party seeks to own or control the agency, labor, loyalty, or future of others. It scales from personal manipulation all the way to institutional and civilizational predation.
