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.
