It seems like it would be very difficult to distinguish which side of the police line someone is on based on a pile of demographics. How many of those are protestors versus police? Likewise, National Guard, reporters, fire department, medical, etc. If they separated them out, it doesn't say they did in the article or even hint at an attempt.

I don't think so. Read this: https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/mg9vvn/how-our-likes-help...

I am fairly confident they can easily tell which way someone leans on the matter.

Government workers are a tiny fraction of population at a protest.
