To be completely honest - antifa is by far more radical and dangerous than the "fascists" they are fighting.

Nope - not in the least. Think of how much control authoritarians and fascists already have, and think of the lack of various disconnected groups of anti-fascists who have absolutely no influence on anything, nor do they cause any trouble. The US is supposed to be anti-fascist, but....

You are right, antifa has no political power, they are just mischief makers. I think what people object to is that antifa promotes censorship of ideas they don't like, and do violence to protesters they disagree with, which is not really very anti-fascist of them. Fascists tend to similiarly demand ideological conformity

Antifa is a bunch of domestic terrorists just like Black Lives Matter.

Misusing the term 'domestic terrorist' to refer to extreme political groups is a tactic the liberals have been using against conservatives for a long time, I'm not sure why you would want to help propagate this trend, as normalizing this idea is mainly harmful to the right, who the media has an easier time painting as the bad guy

Antifa is essentially the left wing equivalent of the Proud Boys, they both want to censor things they don't agree with, wear matching outfits, and start fights at protests with the other side. The main difference being that Antifa is somewhat more hypocritical since they advocate for some of the same things as the ideology they are against

Antifa is violent and throws bombs at protests.
