Introduction
The Cold War Mentality is an ideology that believes that the best possible state of the world is one in which there are two factions that are in constant tension or indirect conflict with each other. Though this can mean a 
communist and 
capitalist faction, it can mean any form of global tension with 
two massive factions, led by two superpower nations, that bring a large portion of countries into becoming proxy states of them and helping them do the fighting.
It believes strongly in the power of the 
Military-Industrial Complex in keeping this constant tension fueled. It believes in the power of states to 
overrule individual liberties, both domestically and abroad, and unite people by both manipulation into paranoia and brute force to contribute to the continuation of this constant global tension.
Personality and Behavior
Cold War Mentality is extremely spiteful ball who wants to see camps of people pitted against each other, especially nations. Appreciates aggressive pawns who help do his fighting for him. Is always looking to escalate a situation without thinking about what might happen next. Hates mediators.

Truman - One of my primary early architects.
Stalin - Another one of my primary early architects.
Neoconservatism - That Cold War thing was great! You really gave the Soviets and their allies a good fight, and your endless interventions in foreign nations was very based. Why did you want to win so badly, though? Why not take it slow? Forever?
Marxism–Leninism - Same with you! The Eastern Bloc, the paranoid political executions, and the proxy wars you started and fought with the western powers in were all a marvel to watch. It's a shame that you eventually collapsed though.
Imperialism - Yes, my darling superpowers! Expand your influence globally! Carve it up, camp it up!
Interventionism - Haha, proxy war bombs go boom boom.
McCarthyism - Mastered the art of paranoia spreading.
Ho Chi Minh Thought - Useful warmongering proxy state. Thanks for putting up such a long and spectacular fight, that was great!
Person Dignity Theory - Useful warmongering proxy state. It was good while it lasted.
Juche - Useful warmongering proxy state. Literally still taking my inspiration, heavily militarizing, and invoking global fear to this day.

Mixed
Jingoism - Very based if between proxy states. Not very based if directly between superpowers. Gotta keep the war cold.
Anti-Imperialism - Idiot, but sometimes a useful one.
Scientocracy - Helps me by developing and advancing the superpowers, especially in warfare, creating yet another competition. Your lack of interest in partisan politics and desire to cooperate internationally are disturbing, though.
Wilsonianism - Pathetic liberal internationalist, but you were also one of the first American leaders to preach the Red Scare, which is based.
National Socialism - That general war mentality and whole global war thing you started were pretty cool, but it was direct, and you wanted it to have an end! Look how quickly you ended up sabotaging yourself. Why?!
Hoxhaism - Get out of your damn bunkers and stop isolating yourself! Be a useful proxy state!
Trumpism - I love your unapologetically inflammatory anti-Chinese sentiment. But you're not good at uniting the American people to most efficiently be paranoid aboutfight against the new eastern alliance.
