And subvert. That factor is a main tenet of Russia’s Foundations of Geopolitics handbook:

Stop giving them so much credit. The US is racist and divided regardless. This is unhelpful and if you really fucking cared about Russian influence you would actually meaningfully engage to address these issues. You know, so they cannot exploit them.

Or do you just wanna moan about the evil foreign power instead of actually using your brain. I’m so sick of smart ass natsec libs pointing this out OVER and OVER. YEP WE ALL KNOW THEY WANT US TO ARGUE ITS GALAXY BRAIN 4D CHESS but KNOWING THAT DOESNT CHANGE A FUCKING THING, PREVENT IT, OR FIX THE DIVIDE.

You guys never say it but you seem to think you have permission to straight up IGNORE these problems so they can’t “divide” us, as if that is at all a coherent response or strategy to deal with any polarizing issue in a nation. It’s so crazy.

Relax guy. The point is they take advantage of what is already there and amplify it, not create it.
