    Are they also ultra-nationalist, ultra-right-wing, and in favor of strict social hierarchies? There’s more to fascism than just being mean to people you don’t like

        Ok but that’s not fascism

        Like, according to your own definition that you linked, and your own opinion of the control structure of Antifa, they don’t match up

        “control the lives of people, not allowing them to disagree with them” - at least in my opinion.

        The right uses political and actual violence to prevent people from being themselves. That’s not a disagreement. That’s actual fascism.

            Right wing violence is all over the news the last three years in Germany.

            I do however see that Antifa in the EU seem to be a lot more militant than here in the U.S.
