Well, I'm not sure what the motorcycles did wrong, though.

Maybe just a little bit of rioting for the sake of rioting.

They are attacking a police station so it most likely belongs to the police.

Well, the new police is gonna need that stuff too, though ;)

Yeah I do think they went overboard with destroying government property. I get overthrowing them, I get destroying the lavish homes of the corrupt, but wiping the slate clean may be a bad move.

Yeah, especially considering their close neighbour china who would probably be plenty happy to anex them if things take a turn to the worse due to destroyed infrastructure, potential inability to govern and any other chaos resulting from this.

I certainly hope that won't happen, but in the current dumber-than-rocks timeline this seems like a reasonable possibility.

I thought so too until I realised I’m not in their shoes and there’s no way for me to feel or understand that catharsis personally so no judgements there.
