Who knows, maybe Morey *is* providing support for HK financially and/or otherwise.

But even if not, I just don't like the "moral support is meaningless" sentiment, in general. Disingenuous or not, if you're right you're right. It can't *hurt* to tweet out something like that, in support of marginalized people and in support of democracy on a global level. He's got a social media following being who he is, and therefore has *some* level of influence, so even if all the tweet does is spread the message and change the mind of one person (nevermind that it could, by virtue of a chain reaction, influence someone to take more significant action) then it's worth it.
