They may call them that. it doesn’t make it true.

That's my point. Most people called a fascist and Nazi today are not actually either of those.

I'm not implying that antifa symbolism alone makes them anarcho-communistic. It's their actual actions, messaging, and organizing. They do black bloc and they promote a "classless society" on their websites along with anti-capitalist messaging.

My only point on antifa here is that it clearly is not merely "anti-fascist."

As someone from England, a class-free society is a good thing. People should not have special privileges (with heavy emphasis on the etymology: "private law") due to their birth.

Anti-capitalist messaging is also a good thing. And in a society built on free speech absolutely necessary. If you can't criticise how people generate money if they do it in an evil way, you don't live in a free society.
