Also just individual humans who don't assume that open borders and mass immigration is the correct state we must eventually arrive at.

Isn't it much simpler to believe that there are people who organically disagree?

And if the goal of the conspiracy is to sow discontent and weaken relations, and if a disagreement requires two opposing viewpoints, aren't both sides equally responsible for the weakening?

Sure. And how is "people disagree on a policy issue" and "other people are exploiting that disagreement" incompatible?

In that case (embarassingly obviously) it's the 3rd party's fault, not either of the two disagreeing parties.
