'''Antifa''' (short for Anti-Fascist Action) are a loosely-organized far-left movement predominantly made up of radical socialists, anarchists, and communists, who's stated goal is the suppression of [[fascism]], neo-nazism, [[White supremacy|white supremacy]] and other far-right ideologies in North America and Europe through the use of violence and physical/vocal harassment. They're widely considered the left-wing counterpart of the [[Alt-Right]] with many expressing [[Americophobia|anti-American]], [[Xenophobia|xenophobic]] and communistic opinions. The group gained wider recognition during the protests against Donald Trump, in which Antifa members present were re-[[Vandalism|vandalizing]], fighting, and causing property damage. Antifa has received criticism from the American and worldwide population on both sides of the political spectrum for their use of violent crimes to achieve ends. | '''Antifa''' (short for Anti-Fascist Action) are a loosely-organized far-left movement predominantly made up of radical socialists, anarchists, and communists, who's stated goal is the suppression of [[fascism]], neo-nazism, [[White supremacy|white supremacy]] and other far-right ideologies in North America and Europe through the use of violence and physical/vocal harassment.
