IOW US is protecting Kurds by shooting down a single Turkish drone?
Kurds, which are often abandoned by US (Iraq, Syria at least, in later case giving free hands to .... Turkey)?
I really don't think there is a positive internet towards Kurds there.

As I said, they're not doing much. But it's fairly clear that the US would rather have Turkey leave the Kurds alone. It's just not ready to take more than symbolic measures.

Man, US left their allied Kurds to Turkey's slaughter recently.

That was recently, but under a different administration. It's unlikely that Biden would have done that.
