I feel you. Having lived in HK for 8 years now. I hold a permanent HKID, and consider HK my home. I've been trough the protests in 2014, and the ones in 2019, it was mentally draining because it's hard to discuss these subjects with locals. To them, you're just a foreigner that can leave any time he wants. When you disagree on certain political things, you'll often hear; "you're just a foreigner, you don't understand", and there's nothing you can say to that. I've come to terms with it tho, accepting that even though this is my home, I'll never be truly accepted or be able to fit in. But I also think this has made me a better person. Having experienced racism multiple times here, I'm much more aware of my own actions.
