It's certainly not direct physical violence to citizens of an established world power that is a concern. It's pushing things in one direction or another politically. See well documented: Intelligence community v.s Trump v.s Facebook v.s Russian propaganda campaign v.s traditional "manufactured concent" of citizen. How these players interplay is what is at stake. If helps tremendously if some of the actors are "trying" have enough independent thought and don't suffer too much when they push things in more liberal & egalitarian direction.
