To clarify: I don't mean that researchers will change their entire fields and write papers on identity politics, I mean articles (journalistic), social media, blog posts, conferences, hires, public relations etc
But the researchers spend their time for the most part writing papers and grants and teaching. Conversations with journalists, social media, public relations are minor or non-existent activities, for the great majority.

Agree but not exactly countering my point here. Just because I work in tech day to day, doesn't deny that the top talking point for the last year has been focussed on stories of harassment, gender politics and diversity measures.

Sure. Tech seems to be have much more of a pop culture than academia. But when I spend time with academics they fall mostly into two buckets: wanting to talk about research, or about funding/jobs etc. (The latter, if seen persistently, is a bad anti-pattern.)
