You are right about that MAGA hat wearers mostyl aren’t Nazis, insofar as actual national socialism, specifically, is a fringe ideology these days in the US. That is probably in part due to the Nazis being a very popular scapegoat for sanctifying US war mongering for the past 80 years, and national socialism therefore being considered “unamerican”. The Nazis represent the last universally accepted justification for a US invasion into foreign territory. There have been many such invasions since, and they were all due to economic and political interests, so not nearly as sexy as fighting an ultimately villainous ideology like Nazism.
What MAGA hat wearers are though is (mostly) adults who consciously embrace and support racism, bigotry, misogyny, inequality, fiscal irresponsibility and general stupidity and lack of culture. National socialists most of them aren’t, but plain old fascists they sure are.
Maybe if you wait another 80 years or so it will be “confirmed by evidence”.
