“Such dirty tricks are one of few things Russians have always been good at.”
Well, could be. But, I think you may be giving the Russians a little more credit than they deserve. Liberal Europeans aren’t any different than Americans liberals. Both are ridged ideologues who care less about average folks who they claim to care so much about. Hypocrisy abounds for sure...
Perhaps but just a little more... Some of those activities are becoming common knowledge.

“Liberal Europeans aren’t any different than Americans liberals.”
They are far worse actually. I'm not saying that without Russia there wouldn't be eco-nazi/pro-homo/anti-military and overall tree hugging approach in the west but they sure make use of it empowering groups promoting that nonsense. It is nothing new, during the cold war they were behind most of “peace movements”. Both Russia and China have been using these tricks and the west is a sitting duck on this one. “Liberal democracy” unfortunately offers plenty of opportunities for sabotage activities.
