What is it called when people do that? There is a terminology that I cannot remember.

They basically apply it to everything and everyone. A person against illegal immigration is a white supremacist. Anyone right of Stalin is a Nazi. A person who doesn’t advocate murdering police is a bootlicker etc etc
