I don't see any other outcome when one side is usually supported by evidence and the other side is usually driven by hatred and hysteria generated by rage-bait media. How do you find a middle ground with a nazi?

What's wilder is that the left clearly still thinks that continually framing their opposition as modern day nazis is a winning electoral strategy.
The fact that the right and large part of center do not care about truth and cares only about verbal strategy is the issue. Otherwise said, these are people who honestly express their observations and opinions on what right is.
One reason right became what it is is that years of expectation that reasonable people must euphemism away who they are. That reasonable people must enable them.
There's no room for reasonable discussion with anyone who can look at that and come to the conclusion that they're being "framed" as nazis. To be clear, I don't believe all of their voters are nazis, just those who decide to stick with the party in light of the overwhelming evidence.
Elon Musk is either a nazi or merely a capitalist who knows dog whistling as a nazi is good business right now. That my observation of this doesn't help with a national political strategy doesn't mean much to me in the moment. He's not been quiet about it, and people don't seem to care (do you?). So, I guess we'll see where it goes.
The DOGE logo literally has a Nazi wheel for an O: https://www.reddit.com/r/EnoughMuskSpam/comments/1irkzry/wel...
If you read the link you provided, even a lot of people on r/EnoughMuskSpam are calling this argument weak - it is obviously an AI-generated image, and some subtle similarity between an AI-generated image and an obscure Nazi logo is much more likely to be just a coincidence than something intentional.
TIL that Nazis invented the gear.
The left has also more or less split as of late between socialism and neoliberalism too. But that's a whole other conversation.
