I was a student during the last great wave of student protests (yeah I’m old). There was a grave difference between then and now. The nation had not become numb to violence by protesters and police. What we witnessed then had a powerful impact. Now it has been normalized.
The thing that everyone seems to be missing is that President Biden is in a no-win situation, and it's one of Trump's making.
Stay with me here: Netanyahu has a long and well-documented acquaintance and business association with Trump. The internet makes it easy to find the evidence. It's well within the realm of possibility that one fascistic dictator-to-be would start a genocidal war to a) become even more popular (think Iraq and Bush); b) to gain even more power on the global stage (point to half the current leaders); and help get the Orange Malignancy reelected, for the "betterment" of authoritarians everywhere.
We've sided with Israel for decades, and they've been a good ally under most of their leadership. Netanyahu is a monster, another sociopath (who should be ousted), and Trump should never be responsible for anything more complex than separating recycling.
