Refusing to denounce rioting is almost always paired with something along the lines of "rioting is the language of the unheard" or "our organizations will not denounce any black person’s display of grief and/or rage", as is the literal case with one of the organizations from my hometown [0]. I cannot see that as anything but support. But trying to justify actions, you are, by definition, supporting those actions.

To be clear, it's the justification, not refusing to denounce.

"If you are not with us, you are against us."

I go out of my way to show that's not the mentality I have, nor one I want to promote.

Again, there are always some bad actors. I agree this statement sounds a lot closer to support than measured opposition.
