Checking up on the definition of antifa it would appear these guys are not just "not fascist", they are strongly left-wing. So it's entirely possible for someone with a centrist view to be simultaneously anti-fascist and anti-antifa without paradox.

The definition of antifa is "anybody who is against fascism".
"The Antifa" does not exist.

Well that's what I thought but I thought I'd better look it up to be sure.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifa_(United_States)

which is littered with words like violence, doxing, harassment, property damage, anticapitalist, antistate, anarchists, communists, revolutionaries.

"highly decentralized array". I can only speak for Europe but here it's wrong to call Antifa an organization.
