This is a great point.I think part of what Bron is trying to say is that Morey wouldn't have sent a tweet like that if he personally was on his way to China. Dude might not have made it back to the states if he did something like that. So from that standpoint it was selfish, misinformed and what not. And Morey hasn't shown any kind of interest in the issue whatsoever outside of a quickly deleted tweet so it comes off like he really didn't know what he was doing and doesn't really care all that much. He's not exactly Kaepernick here.
From the little I know the situation in Hong Kong and China in general is pretty complex. So even just showing support for hk can be construed a couple different ways, it's not all that straightforward. But even with that I think a lot of these guys are dodging the issue when they say they're not informed. Fact is, China has a lot of people by the balls. Nobody involved has spoken down on China and they all tiptoe around the subject. It's easy to type on a message board about how righteous you are but I don't even know what I would do in this situation. It's not just about your own financial gain and it's more nuanced than just saying '**** China'
