Why would White Supremacists burn down a city when a black man is shot? Just please answer me that question.

I have a good idea why riots are not met with dogs and rubber bullets fire hose or gas this time around. Probably the same reason why they’re not labeled ‘they’ or animals this time around maybe...

If you've watched any of the riot streams over the past couple of months, you've seen white people making up a significant portion of those burning/destroying property. Depending on the area, it's a majority.
The vast majority of them are marxists and anarchists. BLM lays the "peaceful protest" cover, while coordinated groups of mostly white leftists destroy black neighborhoods and scream in the faces of black cops. In places like Portland, the line of cops is often more diverse than the mostly white rioters calling the black officers race traitors.
Not to say black locals aren't participating, especially in the looting, but white leftists are playing a significant role in the organized aspect of these riots, specifically in the provocation of police and destruction of property.
Pretty sure this has been extensively discussed, going all the way back to Ferguson.

They're not white supremacists in the usual understood manner. They're white allies, and BLM is not a racial movement about racism so much as it is a communist revolution taking place.
Understand that Critical Race Theory and Social Justice are the means by which communism is seeking to tear down the US. They could not affect a workers' revolt here, so they moved on to racial and sexual grievance groups using CRT and Intersectionalism. The panacea to it is Social Justice and Equity (not to be confused with equality).
This is a cultural revolution on par with Mao's Red Guard in a way and it will be just as poisonous if we allow it be.

I was watching last night and some guy named Reggie asked a BLM guy what he thought of the fires and he said that it was crazy that antifa was starting fires
Soon we will see these groups go after each other.
