It is not difficult at all. Antifa means street-fighting as if this were the Weimar Republic in 1928. I have not heard about some other type of activism it is involved with. Which leads me to ask what role it plays, if any, in the protests today. If the goal is to confront and beat down fascists, I am not sure how they relate. It's been a while since there's been any fascist parades, right?
