Doing a 180 on the subject:

Vid games ARE used...........as programming/training for some mk assass.

See:

Real Life Video Game! | Derren Brown - Trick Of The Mind | FULL EPISODE

Youtube for an example.

Some games (like the illuminatti cards) were used to create scenarios like Operation Looking Glass does now. Giving power groups a point system that varies depending on how groups align with or against each other. And those groups actually exist.

Other video games are of course Game Theory and are little short of tools to form opinion or reaction and/or data is farmed from each players 'decisions' like an algorhythmic grade of profile. Personality profile based on your decisions.

The subject matter is predictive programming and/or twisted histories.

Finally, online game comm channels have/had 'secret' or 'back channels' where blackhats could communicate without being snooped.

Gregory Hill aka Malcalypse the Younger, one of the originators of Discordianism...................I believe he 'disappeared' and became a Game Theory guru at Southern Illinois U. (?) utilizing learned propaganda techniques using mythic and symbolic storylines as delivery agents.

As time and tech changes, so do the methods.

Like tv, vid games could be the greatest teaching/learning tool imaginable, but no, it gets controlled and ruined immediately for that exact reason.

Knowing this, I was able to predict the 'Bat flu' as a coming event from a video game, as well as 'monkeypox'.

The Funniest Movie Trailer Ever! "The Simian" - Grand Theft Auto V

GTA game is showing the co-operation between blackhat industries, each operating as cutouts on a need-to-know basis.

Same with Red Dead Redemption 2 and Assassin's Creed Odyssey

Most all are apocalyptic in one way or another.
