Or was it Biden's victory and liberal's exhaustion with politics in a Trump-era world?

I can't help but wonder if the presence of a Democrat in the presidency just sort of pacifies liberal, left, and radical mass movements and mobilization.

The reason why this seems unlikely to me is that you can't win the presidential race without capital, and once you accept their help they've got their hooks into you. They wouldn't offer their help to a strong leftist anyways, they'd campaign against them, even within the same party. We saw it happen real-time in the last two elections.
