So inflaming racial and ethnic tensions and causing violence is okay too? Because that's what has already happened and that's been a goal of agitprop forever. I understand the techno-utopist naivete of "it's all just information!" but it's wrong and if it weren't insidious, it wouldn't be used. It's a tactic just shy of what would trigger war, can be (and is-successfully) used to cause strife and violence, and is often an opening salvo to war.
Personally, if it happens to my country, I want us to defend and fight against it, not try to play the both-sides whataboutism game. The Internet didn't break the nationstate like we thought it would.
