Are they living too far away? Too poor to go there? Bots? Laziness? Are they not interested in military parades despite liking to denounce protesters?

What's the big reason?

racism is easier to support online than in person.

the best way to resolve racist opinions is to coerce those with abhorrent views to see their targets as human beings exactly like themselves. having this happen physically, in person, is a requirement.
