Yes, in the sense that all protests should be held to the same standard by the government regardless of legimatcy. As in you can absolutely be against a portest that you don't agree with and deem illegitimate. But, the government does not get to decide what cause is "legitimate" to forbid a group from doing what they encouraged another group to do. The point of protesting is to protest against those in power, not to show how much you agree with them
