students: "deepening polarisation, and very little common ground. They're either with us or against us"

(That's not me. However I find this interesting.)

Americans' attitudes towards Israel have shifted along generational lines. Younger people are far more likely to have an unfavourable view of Israel than a favourable one, a July 2022 Pew Research Center poll found.

And a partisan divide has opened up as well. For the first time, Democrats are now more likely likely to feel more sympathy for the Palestinian people, according to Gallup polling, while Republicans are more likely to sympathise with Israel.

Israel and Gaza on campus: Tumult at US colleges as two sides dig in

I think Israel is really damaging it's image as the underdog fighting for freedom and looking more and more like the people who persecuted Jews in the 1940s.

In the US, the more you know about the history of the region the more the Israelis seem like the bad guys and kids in college are more well versed in History while older people don't keep up.

I don't think "THEY" are the bad guys, I think there are bad guys controlling the government. The only people who can do anything about that are the Israeli people. Their government risks losing American support, welfare, and maybe that's a good thing.
