Thing is, the crisis has always put in the new values and rendered the old obsolete. Kings, slaves, isolationism, liaises faire all become obsolete. That means things can't swing either way.
In the US in normal times given the slavery compromise gives the conservatives the advantage. They block problem solving, meaning the list of things that must change builds up. Addressing the crisis problems means change. How could you claim to have solved the current crisis without solving the coronavirus and reforming violent racist police? Crisis scale problems tend just not to be solvable by remaining the same.
