    Anyone know of a word to use for when one uses helpless migrants as chattel in a pathetic attempt to destabilize a neighbor? Does tensions work?

      In Poland it’s “hybrid attack”. Devious, disgusting dehumanisation which makes even otherwise smart or kind people cheer for forces literally letting people freeze to death in forests. Rebrand helpless, misguided refugees as “Russia’s hybrid weapon” and you can get away with any atrocity.
