They're not mocking the misidentification of the salute, they're trying to muddy the waters to dilute the accusations, like they have every single time something wants to stick. This is their standard playbook, as is the tone policing that comes with it.

Yes they are. By claiming "misidentification"... Not exclusively as it also works on people who believe that the Nazi were left wing Communist, because they might actually believe that AOC did the salute. But the primary function is to muddy the water by mocking the identification as a misidentification.
