Official narrative
Antifa is a left-wing, anti-fascist and anti-racist political movement, both in the United States and other Western countries. As a highly decentralized array of leaderless groups, antifa uses both nonviolent and violent direct action to achieve its aims rather than policy reform.[1] Much of antifa political activism is nonviolent, involving poster and flyer campaigns, mutual aid, speeches, protest marches, and community organizing.[2]They also engage in protest tactics, seeking to combat fascists and racists such as neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other far-right extremists. Antifa's willingness to directly confront far-right activists (and in some cases, law enforcement) is a departure from other leftist opposition movements. This confrontation sometimes involves digital activism, doxing, harassment, physical violence, and property damage against those they identify as belonging to the far right.
