Could it be that "Antifa" can sometimes refer collectively to people who, individually "are Antifa" in the same way that you yourself said you are Antifa?

Enlil said: No, he said that antifa kills people. To prove that, he'd have to show that the actual antifascism killed someone. An antifascist can certainly kill someone just like a baptist can. That doesn't mean that antifascism killed anyone anymore than christianity did. To the best of my knowledge, killing people is not a part of the antifascist ideology.
His claim was not that antifascism killed anyone though, now was it. And it's clear that you believe an individual person can "be Antifa" by being against fascism.
Yes it was. I can be antifa, sure...that means I'm antifascist. Antifa is an adjective in the sentence, "I am antifa." It's a noun in the sentence "Antifa grows stronger every day" because Antifa stands for "antifascism" in that sentence.
This isn't complicated stuff. I assume he must have meant the noun form of Antifa when he said Antifa kills people because it wouldn't make sense if he was using the adjective.

Maybe, but that pretty much makes his sentence meaningless. The vast majority of the planet is antifascist, so to make a statement that antifascists do anything is almost always going to be true, since at least one of the billions of antifascists has probably done just about anything a human can do.

I think you are being disingenuous, obviously he can't have meant that an abstract ideology killed anyone. How would that even work?

You're not far off, but I believe that he believes that Antifa is an organization and that the organization kills people. That isn't true, though. If he means that someone in the world is antifascist AND has killed someone, that is true. That isn't what he meant, though, and you're being disingenuous if you argue that it is.

From his example, I believe what he meant by the term is something like "people who self-identify as Antifa" rather than "anyone at all who is against fascism, whether or not they would describe themselves as Antifa". The example he gave talks about self-identification rather than membership in a formal organization.

Because they thought he was Antifa?
I guess he would have left him alone if he were wearing nothing but American flag boxer shorts and a cowboy hat.

What a bunch of thugs, far out. Thankfully there was one decent human in amongst that mob. I just watched another clip of Lindsay Graham walking through an airport getting hassled and called a traitor.
It's no wonder the Repub reps are shit scared, not of Trump but his violent supporters 
Edit 2 decent people, the guy with the dreads as well

At that point, there are much better examples of people who self-identify as "Antifa" killing people.
WWII comes to mind as an international coalition of antifa killing people.

as long as they kill fascists I'm not bothered, its apparently the only effective way of dealing with them. Time after time

I'd guess he was just talking about the modern day incarnation of the movement in the USA but who knows.

It almost always is. It's been demonstrated time and time again, that fascists are there to kill or be killed. They don't show up to "protest". They show up to fight.

I'm sure he was, which means he was being arbitrary and stupid.

So you guys support shooting random innocent people walking down the street just because they were wearing a MAGA hat, like Michael Reinoehl?
It's fucking sickening to watch people talk like this.
All 75 million Trump supporters are fascists, and thus it's okay to murder them at random. That is the line of thinking you guys are walking.
