I avoided using Trump's name in 2015-2016, but I'm not going to beat myself up too much over it. My reasoning at the time was that Trump's strategy involved getting people to talk about him, positively or negatively, and by saying "Trump" you were making him a trending term on social media. My calling him "Toupee Hitler" was a way to avoid doing that for Trump. But I stopped doing that after he was elected, because the damage had been done and there wasn't much point anymore.

We were all libs once, we get better. I did the exact same thing till like half way through 2016, then I really fell down the leftist rabbit hole.
