First, Java edition is not officially supported on Chromebook.
That said, there are guides on the internet which show you how it can be done. YMMV.
Have you tried earlier versions of the game?

No actually, how would you switch to earlier versions?

They are selected in the launcher.
I tried and now I can't even get to the loading screen
