This isn't unique to Chinese mainlanders. If you look at other countries: U.S, Sri Lanka, Israel, Brazil, France etc., you're going to find a significant portion of the population that seems to support far-right populism based on ethnic nationalism.
Look at Trump, who is currently attempting to push an anti-China narrative in the US, but still gave Xi Jinping the green light to build camps for the Uighurs, and said it was "exactly the right thing to do." [1]
Should we judge them? Are they our enemy? I don't know. But this seems to be a systematic bias that pervades humanity in general.

And no single nation - not even the US - has any power to give a "green" or "red" light to China currently. The only way any pressure would work is with a league of nations applying sanctions.
