Because it's stupid to draw your battle lines based on skin colour. You have two people: a pro-democracy protester from Hong Kong, and a white rioter from Seattle. Which one is your ally?
On what basis should I conclude the "pro-democracy protestor from Hong Kong" is an ally? Because they're "pro-democracy"? We have those here: they just "fortified" an election. Because they use American symbolism? our leftists used to do that here as well before discovering they could drop the pretense.
Because they're pro-Western residents of a Western colony. The enemy of our enemy is not our friend, but there is a meaningful difference between the people of Hong Kong and the people of Xinjiang.
Being someone who tends to support self-determination of separate peoples, that just means I ought to support Hong Kong over China. Which I do. That doesn't mean I consider them an "ally" in American internal conflicts. They are not providing me aid and comfort, and their own culture tends to be more authoritarian and less pro individual liberty than my own.
Xenophobic resentment has defined the sensibility of the protesters, who vow to “retake Hong Kong” from Chinese mainlanders they depict as a horde of locusts. The demonstrators have even adopted one of the most widely recognized symbols of the alt-right, emblazoning images of Pepe the Frog on their protest literature.
You are citing a deranged left-wing lunatic. Fuck him and fuck you.
Why would White people standing up for themselves be a bad thing?

Democracy is a shit value. Blood and soil, authority that has the people's interests in mind is a thousand times more important

We've been carrying society for a while now. Makes more sense to cut the dead weight.
