Don't know about USA, but in Germany the inflationary use of "Nazi" by leftists weakened the term a lot. So if someone is called a Nazi, you don't have to assume anymore it's a bad person. I believe it will be impossible to turn that back.

See https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concept_creep and https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aap8731
