'AntiFa' is a word. It refers to a group of people who share a common political attitude -- namely, hate-America.
They're not the kind of people who do much serious thinking, so they don't have an ideology as such ... to the extent that they do, it tends towards a self-indulgent anarchism.
And since they're not really serious, they are not organized, not in the way the Oathkeepers were organized, or the Communist Party is organized (or in the way patriots need to organize).
Even if they were organized, criminal prosecution of them would be a terrible idea. (Of course, prosecute the individuals who commit crimes like torching a police car, etc. But a national prosecution on vague 'conspiracy' charges would backfire.)
It would garner them enormous publicity and huge sympathy from liberals who are now dubious about them. (Because they drive away voters from the Democrats every time they riot.)
If you don't believe me, read about the criminal prosecution of the 'Chicago Seven'. [

Another point:
We don't want to give the government more power to pursue political deviants. They may use it against a few annoying anarchists, but
the real target will be us. People who want the government to expand its powers to use against the Left are living in the past.
THINGS HAVE CHANGED IN AMERICA! We have got to understand this and start to act accordingly.
Actually, we should encourage AntiFa. They won't be a serious military threat in some future confrontation, and right now, they drive normal people in our direction. I wish there could be an AntiFa -led riot-and-looting session a week before every election.
In the meantime, go here for more information on them:

There are also a couple of books to read about them: Mark Bray has written one, pro-AntiFa, and the wonderful Andy Ngo has written another one, against them.
We must know the enemy, but this particular enemy is not a serious one.
