Have you been brainwashed to believe your mind is free?

The Grandmaster follows the rules. The Grandmaster uses experience and logic to predict the future board-states 3 or 4 turns ahead. This information restricts their options.

The Grandmaster is a "best move" robot.

The novice is FREE to move anywhere or do anything they think of. The novice is NOT restricted by the rules of the game or by the potential future board-states.

The novice is FREE.

You suggest that the Grandmaster is "free" to (EITHER) choose their best move (OR) some other move.

But why would the Grandmaster ever choose a move that wasn't (to the best of their knowledge) their best move?

Are you suggesting there is some utility in knowingly "choosing" a bad move?

I mean, if the Grandmaster was training an initiate, they might make moves that would best train their partner, and not necessarily the best move to win the game as quickly as possible, but that would still be their best move, BASED ON THEIR GOAL OR MOTIVE (desire, e-motion).

You must always make your best move (unless you are knowingly self-sabotaging).

Now for the BRAINWASHING.

The ultimate novice is the newborn infant.

But is a newborn infant truly FREE?

They are instinctively motivated by (slaves of) avoiding pain, discomfort and hunger.

They are instinctively motivated by (slaves of) seeking joy, comfort and peace.

The core human motivation schema (PRIMARY AXIOMS):

(1) PROTECT YOURSELF
(2) PROTECT YOUR FAMILY
(3) PROTECT YOUR TERRITORY

The BRAINWASHERS (con-artists) try to subvert this natural human motivation schema (AXIOMS) by reshuffling them:

The PATRIOT

(1) PROTECT YOUR TERRITORY (COUNTRY)
(2) PROTECT YOUR FAMILY (FELLOW SOLDIERS/OFFICIALS)
(3) PROTECT YOURSELF (SACRIFICE YOURSELF FOR TERRITORY OR FAMILY, HERO FALLACY)

The MOBSTER

(1) PROTECT YOUR FAMILY (OMERTA)
(2) PROTECT YOURSELF (SACRIFICE YOURSELF FOR FAMILY)
(3) PROTECT YOUR TERRITORY (TERRITORY IS FUNGIBLE BUT STILL CRITICAL)
