It's dangerous to call protesting and rioting an undermining event, as it will always look undermining at the time, to observers. It's one of the more important resources the citizens have, and if they give that up because "it doesn't look good" then the slip away from freedom in any nation becomes faster.

Black people can be murdered by police in the US and mostly aren't charged with murder, often their acts even justified. That is an issue that requires the citizens to step up and demand change and so far doing that online and with words means nothing to police forces and governments.
