One of the reasons I am railed up about the protest is not so much the implications on the relationship between Hong Kong and mainland China, but the implications on the perceptions of the oversea Chinese community.
These advocates for the protesters routinely perpetuate a "Us vs Them" mentality against oversea Chinese people, especially toward the students. The "Us" includes not just the protesters, but other people with "Western" values, which reeks of superiority complex and Eurocentrism.
Given the political climate that we are in, these gestures targeted against oversea Chinese community, online or otherwise, seems to be a direct incitement of white anxiety. And this is a tactic that we as people living in the West could not be more familiar with: finger pointing at some group of people (e.g., the fobs) in order to gain favor with the whites.
Moreover, these advocates are quite happy to further perpetuate negative racial stereotypes against Chinese people using characterizations such as: they are brainwashed (appeal to xenophobia), they are violent cowards (appeal to yellow peril), they are rude and uncultured (appeal to Eurocentrism).
Finally, the nail in the coffin is the silence on racism, global white supremacy, and colonialism, compounded by efforts to distort or downplay these social issues along with an occasional blatant flaunting of ignorance (such as calling Trump for help, out of all the people).

Spend few minutes and educate yourselves about the situation. Never seen so many brainwashed people in one thread.

People in the West shouldn't forget about Xinjiang and Tibet as well.
It's easy to cheer on from afar, but no democracy in the world is really standing up from them. I could see the US actually using them to benefit from the trade war. Sadly the situation may have started as black & white, but as it escalate it just starts to become more muddle and hawks and vultures of politics are just flying over the situation.

Ahh, the resident mouthpiece of the CCP is here LMAO.
Fear-mongering, race baiting, victim-cosplaying...really no different that the white supremacists that he likes to reference as the proverbial bogeyman.
