Yes, the word is overused, and I wouldn't apply it to every Republican, anti-socialist, etc. But on the other hand — if Proud Boys say they’re not Nazis, but keep showing up alongside Atomwaffen and Identity Evropa, and some of their members wear 6MWE shirts [1]… at some point, we just have to be like "okay, these people are Nazis."

Because it's a sliding scale, right? And just because there's no single objective line doesn't mean that we have to give up drawing a line entirely.

I'm not giving an opinion on doxxing random people at the protest who weren't involved in the terrorist attack. I'm just saying that it's fair to see the crowd that showed up and say "stay safe homies, Nazis are about." It turned out to be prescient.
