ANTIFA Stands for: anti-fascism, which is a movement opposing fascist ideologies and actions. It is not a single organization but rather a decentralized collection of groups and individuals who share this opposition. EDUCATION GOES A LONG WAY!!

Every single soldier of the allied forces in WW2 was ANTIFA… wtf do you think antifa stands for? Did you go to school and learn history? Did you learn english and the definition of facist? For you retarded MAGATS here is the definition…. A fascist is a follower or advocate of fascism, a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology. Historically originating in early-20th-century Europe (such as under Mussolini in Italy and Hitler in Germany), the term describes anyone who supports dictatorial power, the suppression of opposition, and the subordination of individual rights for the good of the state or race…. Pull your heads out of your asses magats!!!

In Italy, Antifa refers to a decentralized, autonomous coalition of radical left-wing, anarchist, and communist groups that regularly mobilize against neo-fascist elements, right-wing policies, and the right-wing Meloni administration. It's unlikely that any antifa are still alive. They would be well over 100 years old.
