"Take a title demotion, come back into the office, or quit. Pick one."

"No, I think I'll keep working from home until you fire me despite you dramatically altering my working requirements."

They just disabled my VPN access and demanded I come back to the office. I had to quit at that point. I suppose they could've fired me for job abandonment eventually, though.

No, you were constructively dismissed at that point. Their choice, not yours. File for unemployment.

That was a year ago, and I got a full time wfh job with better pay in the same industry. Much happier. Should've left years before.

The best you can fight for is severance. It's really bad.
