And the US assumed the worst by being mathematically rationally and systemically irrational" (because they assumed technocrats would always make good decisions because technocracy was their idealized endstate).
The US actually invented a golem and fought it instead of the other country Drunk on its own propaganda the US tripped balls and saw a benedryl hatman and took steroids to fight the hatman the US is dying of catastrophic irreversible strokes, kidney problems and now strokes caused by said steroids
Which is funny because the neighbour who the US thought was the hatman now has a son That son has learned they can pretend to be the hatman to make the US take MORE steroids to hurt itself, so he doesn't have to fight the US himself That's how Trump was elected, via Russian election interference
The US invented psudorationalization via econolaundering (which I'm coining, to say the numbers add up even if they don't represent reality) which is then conned in econological warfare, where healthy checks are circumvented.
Econological warfare then would be the use of false logics of economy to trick a psudorational selfish actor into acting in their worst longterm interests
This is why you can't do fake rationalizations, because they circumvent the checks and bounds that prevent those kinds of behaviours. Its why economics reinvented those checks and bounds to be psudorational inefficiencies because an inefficiency is something to be destroyed.
Thus, econological warfare is appealing to econolaundering to cause an actor to benefit the self and harm their neighbors in a net-negative for the totality of a nation or entity.
