I can see your logic. But it seems to be based on the premise that all of this is organic
It doesn't have to be. It can all be playbook. But the underlying psychology that the playbook exploits, can itself be exploited.
If the state is incompetent enough, it will accomplish much of this on its own by not sufficiently controlling the mass psychology of the various ideological camps. Eventually all systems fail.
I disagree that a system based on undermining positions based on objective truth and logically held positions can be used for good in the long run. The principle itself is evil.
