Wharfie,
Not labeling them when they are actually fascists enables them.
That's exactly what happens when you overuse the label.

When everyone is a fascist, then no one is a fascist.

You think there is any ideological difference between PooTin labeling his enemies as "fascist," and Antifa doing likewise?

Just for you, Wharfie. Looks like Brandon is also being called out for overusing the "fascist" label:

Joe Biden's F-word problem (msn.com)

Not that the word "fascist" still means anything — Biden has called everyone who disagrees with him a "semi-fascist" — but Meloni is not a fascist in any meaningful sense of the word. Her party’s economic and social programs do not resemble those of Italy's long-gone and unlamented Fascist regime. Even the claim that her party "has roots in Fascism" is a stretch — it could have been applied just as easily to Silvio Berlusconi, and for exactly the same reasons (the now-defunct party involving some former fascists, which also used a torch as its symbol, merged with Berlusconi's party more than a decade ago). But Meloni, a single mother with an inspirational life story and a sharp tongue, is seen as a much greater threat to the Left than the clownish Berlusconi ever was. Meloni is therefore the one who receives the honor of their “f-bombs.”
