ANTIFA is not an organization.
It is most certainly organized. It has a regional cellular structure with high level organization and funding not only from actors like George Soros, but also the CCP via "Confucius Institute" fronts operating out of colleges all over the nation.

https://itsgoingdown.org/forming-an-antifa-group-a-manual/it simply means- "Anti Fascist" so now anyone who opposes fascism can be labeled as a terrorist, stripped of all rights and held without trial.
This is the classic PR response that people enabling these terrorists seek to parrot. This is little more than a marketing slogan to cover for their international terrorist and criminal activities. ANTIFA itself fits the profile of a fascist organization itself all the while constantly acting as if they are against it.

statutory definition of the types of support that would be prohibited if anifta was designed a terrorist organization. The
punishment for providing material support to a foreign terrorist organization faces 20 years in prison, or a life sentence if their support can be attributed to the death of someone.
I don't think wearing an antifa tea shirt would qualify, however, I also don't think antifa has tea shirts, as from what I have heard on news reports, and read on news reports, they like to keep their identities secret, and use violence to prevent anyone from filing them. My understanding is they primarily engage in violence and intimidation of citizens. I also understand they have operated in Washington state for quite some time with impunity, in broad daylight. This implies they have some politicians in their pockets who are preventing them from being prosecuted.
You are not able to have riots in many cities across the US all starting on the same day (Friday) without funding. Airline prices (and hotel) are low right now, so the cost of getting professional protestors into place may be cheaper than it would normally be. I have heard on the news that police have found numerous cars with "stashes" of rioting supplies that rioters were going to in order to cause damage in multiple cities. This implies they are fairly well funded.
I also know there are some "freedom funds" that are being used to bail out people who are arrested. This may also fall under the above-referenced definition of "support".
They are in fact an international organization, and they have been in Europe since the 20's. They also have a presence in South America, and probably a few other regions. They fit well within the FTO designation.
