> it's anyone who is anti-fascist

Wrong.

> The Antifa movement in Germany is a political movement, composed of multiple far-left, autonomous, militant groups and individuals who describe themselves as anti-fascist. The use of the epithet fascist against opponents and the understanding of capitalism as a form of fascism are central to the movement.

> The English word antifa (or ANTIFA) is a loanword from German, taken as a shortened form of the word antifaschistisch ("anti-fascist") and the name of Antifaschistische Aktion which inspired the wider Antifa movement in Germany.

Did you even read your own link? Not only does it mention that it's a specific movement that is "militant, predominantly left-wing", it outright states that

>Individuals involved in the movement tend to hold anti-authoritarian and anti-capitalist views and subscribe to a range of left-wing ideologies such as anarchism, communism, Marxism, social democracy and socialism

Why did you put a link to the Antifa_(Germany) article?
