Blaming the perceived "center" for the onward journey of the right further and further to the right is, frankly, pretty lazy writing.
No-one was changing their politics because a bunch of upper middle class armchair complainers voiced some banal opinions on identity politics, revealing that they were, in fact, fairly right wing all along.

"Thanks for all the $16k loans at 0% shmucks. We've kept the interest we made while rates have been up and now you can have it back while they're dropping. Of course, your money is now worth less than it was when you gave it to us during high inflation. Suck it losers. Love, T E S L A"
