    As an outsider looking in, who has enough problems of their own to deal with, what kinds of things are the aforementioned “empires” doing to divide the EU? Or is there somewhere I can read about it?

      Trump plans to break up the EU by ‘pulling four Maga allies’ out of the bloc, report claims

      Former aide to far-right German politician jailed for spying for China

      How a fake network pushes pro-China propaganda - A sprawling network of more than 350 fake social media profiles is pushing pro-China narratives and attempting to discredit those seen as opponents of China’s government, according to a new study.

      Chinese threat actor Storm-0940 uses credentials from password spray attacks from a covert network <— NOTE: this is the same botnet that took down Steam for a day just recently, likely to stress test the botnets capabilities.

      You can also blame the current US and EU relations on China since they endorsed the Trump admin reelection using their TikTok psyop.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if Russia and China were promoting BREXIT as the vote was happening.

        Great detailed answer! That gives me plenty to read.

        Good luck to you all (if you’re in the EU). What a terrible timeline to deal with.

          @Telorand @finitebanjo also Russian interference in the Brexit referendum is pretty much assumed at this point. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian/_interference/_in/_the/_2016/_Brexit/_referendum

            That one makes perfect sense to me, but I appreciate the reference

      Look at foreign meddling from Israel, China, Russia and the US.
