Request for quakity non political scifi reads from this decade and a scathing critique of a ruined story

I just finished listening to the Quantum Earth series on Audible, and... ffs!

It went from easily bearable in the first book to "frog boiling" in political bias that honestly has me questioning if the author might try to commit a crime and upload a manifesto in the future.

The whole thing would take me a multi page essay just to unpack the cliffnotes with any degree of complete accuracy on what went disturbingly wrong with that story, but my GOD did that go just shy of what I'd describe as a "veiled, rabidly far-left tirade". I could tell it started out with a serious attempt to reign it in, but by the end only the blindest or most willfully ignorant of readers wouldn't see the glaring issues.

Anyone who wasn't firmly to murderously left was portrayed as an 1800s deep south conservative (complete with hick-isms and racial slur use) to in one case a literal moustache twirling sexist Col. Sanders boomer politician.

Oh, and ONLY the non-left people had hick accents, despite most of the left MC-and-Friends being native-born in the same state.

I'm just so incredibly off put by the last 30-45 chapters of the second book that I need a pallette cleanser in the same genre (scifi) without the excessive political biases.

...FFS, I just wanted to read about people surviving an extinction level natural disaster via a reality hopping device, not veiled "4th(1st?) Re%&h of the Left" propaganda!
