Why center align text in 2018?

I feel like in 2018 I see more centered blurbs and paragraphs on the web. Centered text is a real problem for me because I can't read it. It makes my eyes spaz and my head avert. Am I the only one with this issue? Is there a way to overcome it? Is centering a fad? Is there a UX benefit that outweighs readability?
