there is no pressure pushing the right to be more extreme
I don't know how you got that from what I said. We have screeching harpies constantly protesting around town, often times with their professors giving them extra credit for doing so. We have floods of Mexicans constantly destroying our job market, job performances and basically everything else. I've personally had entire departments at a prior job shuttered to replace it with Mexican slave labor (300$ a month to work 7 days a week, 6 hours a day).
The pressures to be more extreme were unignorable because the effects were felt daily and directly in a way that a "more right wing than normal" area will lack to the same amounts.
Like I said, I think it's mere conditioning to seeing another forced injection of DEI, but anyone who would spend a minute around the character would challenge that assumption, and cause it to be dropped.
Then we are saying the same exact thing. I simply don't think the majority of people put in the time or effort to spend a minute thinking or challenging it. They simply say "woke shit" and put in no further thought, and condition themselves to that 1-2 thought process rather than a learned response based on critical thinking proven consistently right.
They've cut the middleman out and left themselves unable to actually deal with something that does not conform to their preconceived notions, and in that they are extreme because they lack the ability to take a position beyond the most polar ends.
I'm actually not clear on what you mean here
Its a topic you get into the most arguments about, with the exact type of people I'm describing here. Those who, right or not, have conditioned themselves to extremities. Some in response to the Left (or whoever)'s extremism, others due to finally feeling comfortable letting their true beliefs out and are now overcompensating.
Regardless of anything, the Right as a whole has its average belief more extreme (as in, further to the Right) than it has been in the decades prior. Which is my original point.

Ohhhh okay, my mistake, I took from what you said that normies were moving more rightward, not that people on the right were moving more rightward. That's been definitely happening because they are abandoning Liberal presuppositions.
That being said, I would expect reactionary attitudes to form among the public as a result of the conditions you listed.

Strangely enough, I feel like the right on the whole maybe only moved about as far right as they would have been in 2003 or 2004. I've said before that it's clear to me that the Evangelicals lost the culture war, but I feel like the rest of the culture pushed almost into a right-libertarian direction. I really am not clear on why the religious right seems to have gone Catholic. I'm not clear on that at all.
