When fueling hatred and building weapons of mass destruction, it overlooks the importance of the economy, feeding the people and their spirit.

For example, *during World War II, Nazi Germany faced severe and systemic logistical problems in feeding its military (the Wehrmacht), especially as the war continued.

Several critical flaws in their strategy, doctrine, and supply chains left millions of German soldiers starving.

Nazi planners intentionally created Der Hungerplan (The Hunger Plan), which required German troops to invade territories—particularly the Soviet Union—and forcibly seize local crops, grain, and livestock to sustain themselves, knowingly condemning tens of millions of local civilians and POWs to death by starvation.

By late 1944, Germany’s food supply had reached a point of no return. As the Soviet Red Army advanced from the east, Germany lost control of Ukraine and Eastern Europe's highly fertile agricultural lands, which previously supplied up to 40% of the Reich's bread and meat.

By April 1945, both military and domestic food rations had fallen to starvation levels, forcing the regime to cut bread and meat allowances by over 70% compared to the start of the war.*

Nor does fueling hatred feed the economy, as shown by the collapse of Nazi Germany's economy by late 1944 and early 1945.  

Hatred causes a lot of harm and devastation, stifles inspiration and innovation, and blocks love, peace, and redemption.  It's nothing to aspire to and something to definitely avoid.
