Are you suggesting Antifa might not be principled anarchists, but a bunch of mentally unbalanced troons and goons just looking for an excuse to smash stuff, and allowed to do so by the authorities as long as it serves establishment ends?
Dude, Antifa, as in this modern iteration of it, was never really "anti-fascist"... If anything, their principles, stated aims and methods are far closer to actual fascism than anything any of these "anti-vaxxers" might have said or done...
It's just a meaningless name, at this point. Like "Democrat", or the "Liberal" party of Australia, or the "Liberals" in Canada, or the "Conservatives" in England, or any "Labo(u)r" party, pretty much anywhere, none of whom actually stand for any of those things they purport to...
So I see your point, but, uhh, have you SEEN Antifa? "Antifascist" is as big of a lie as "antiracist", at this point, as others have pointed out already...
Why would Antifa oppose an anti-vax protest? Whats "fascist" about not wanting to be forced to vaccinate?

Someone help me to my fainting couch!
Because "fascist" means "not communist".
Same with "racist", "sexist", "homophobe" etc

They are authoritarians and violent Leftists. Leftism is a philosophy of war.
All right-wingers are enemies. If a right winger exists, he must die. The Left kills their enemies. End of discussion from their perspective.
Seriously, find that shooter and make him famous.
