So perhaps you could tell us what anti fascists really want, if you don't think it's being against fascism? You haven't provided any evidence either.

They want to do what they do, which is use violence to force their will on the populace. Claims that they are against “fascism” is excuse to do that. Obviously antifa is linked with violence research Rose City Antifa in Portland for a good example if you are not aware of Antifa.

Plenty of MAGA folks have been violent too, but I wouldn't paint the whole movement from that. Seems kind of... Anti-american to do that.

Everyone in antifa believes they're actually fighting fascists. Everyone in MAGA doesn't, as I'm sure you're aware.

Antifa is not a group, there is no membership, and nobody is “in” Antifa. It is a movement, which some groups and individuals identify with. That is all.

Everyone who is a part of antifa believes they are actually fighting fascist. And thus they call them selves Antifa, if they believed otherwise they wouldn’t call them selves Antifa. This is literally true by definition. A pleonasm if you will.
