Slightly off topic, but I read where the Russians were using social media to support the NFL players kneeling, AND to support the calls for a boycott of the NFL in response to the players kneeling down.  Pretty funny.   Really, no one denies that the Russkies have been stirring the pot, and they're doing so all over the world.

So is the United States.. just about 1,000 times more than them.

I don't know how much of it the US is doing, but as long as we all admit the Russians are stirring the pot and trying to polarize democratic countries, that's a good starting point.   We really need to focus on that.  They are supporting the extremes in an effort to destabilize the West.   I think the investigation of the Trump campaign has caused us all to take our eye off of something that is really important.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but the "Russia investigation" wasn't originally about Trump.
