I meant more the position of being "antifa". Isn't the actual organization decentralized and unstructured, like Anonymous? That's literally all I know about Antifa, and even that might be wrong...
Antifa isn't an organization. Yeah back in Nazi Germany it was, but nowadays its just a movement. There is no organization, any group or person can take up the movement, symbolism, etc of antifascist action (antifa). It is genuinely a situation of if someone is "anti-antifa" then they are either stupid or a fascist.
I think antifa is best described as a strategy to cope with fascist creep.
To describe it with the words of a German pu k Band: "Bist du Anti-Antifa, bist du FA" ( are you anti-antifa you are Fa(cist)).
"Movement", thank you. That's the term I was reaching for!
