Russia should use its special forces within the borders of the United States to fuel instability and separatism, for instance, provoke "Afro-American racists". Russia should "introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics."

This is what white people talk about when they complain about cities. They complain they're scared to go to them "because of the crime". This when homicide rates are nowhere near what they were twenty-five years ago. It's something white people bond over. This isn't 1992.
