I think it's more nuanced due to bad history recognition. Should we call people who wave a swastika flag and chant 'Jews will not replace us' Nazis? Of course we should. but they are the king of the racist pukes out there, so they win the badge.
It's the same thing on their side with all this 'woke' nonsense and fighting a boogeyman that doesn't exist with this critical race theory and child grooming stuff.
burning books, firing teachers, attacking Disney etc.
The word might have a solid meaning from the past but we are 80 years into this shit and there's really no other words for the youngins to describe it. It's obvious that no one is a Nazi anymore but it's the ideology that will remain unless we can teach our children better.
