I wouldn’t assume that. There is too much us vs them divisiveness going around. A lot of people, even those who have some really twisted beliefs are salvageable with a bit of outreach.
I think some of the shift is just the economy. People are impatient for change and the global economy and coalition legacy haven’t allowed the ALP deliver the sort of miracles they pulled during the global financial crisis. People are frustrated and don’t know how to direct it.
The nastier side is that some ordinary working people have got sucked up into a bunch of far right politics without really understanding what is motivating it or who it serves and Dutton stands to gain those votes from Labor. It isn’t the whole country. Traditional party voters and traditional values still exist. Dutton stands to benefit, basically for free, from the divisive, extremist politics flooding in from overseas. But its potentially also his vulnerability to be associated with a brand that might quickly turn toxic in Australia depending on overseas developments.
