Antifa was declared a terrorist organization. They were seen as co-opting a movement, instigating with violence throughout the country, especially in poor neighborhoods, and attempting to start a race-war. However you may feel about the designation, the means to stop them are deemed serious enough to warrant these measures.

> Antifa was declared a terrorist organization. Is this true? Was the identity right declared a terrorist organization as well? Did "antifa" killed someone in the US? (Genuinely asking, i stopped following the new around may). Because I will tell you that Antifa in europe is the leftist equivalent of the identity right (neonazis groups and white supremacists). So if antifa as a whole is deemed a terrorist organisation despite not having killed anyone while you have members of the identity right driving into a crowd or mass shooting people at a synagogue and the identity right as a whole is not at least declared a terrorist organization, this is a weird asymmetry.

  No. There's been violence for sure, but 'antifa' as people claim have no murdered anyone nor caused any mass murders. Trump has said that he will declare them a terrorist group however. The great irony of this all is that we have direct examples of the alt-right straight up murdering people during protests. Like Heather Heyer. But the Unite the Right rally 'wasn't responsible', it was just some rogue person totally unrelated to the alt-right (despite them cheering it on). During these events, all protesters are considered rioters and thus are considered criminals. But during Unite the Right, not all protesters are considered neo-nazis despite marching with neo-nazis. Guilt by association for BLM, and then 'fine people on both sides' for neo-nazis.
