But "antifa" has a sort of civil disobedience optics attached to it. Its has imagery related to it, being sights of protest/riot and unrest type stuff.

Because of propaganda trying to demonize antifa/being anti-fascist. Congrats, you fell for it.

On a personal note, I see the folks identifying as "antifa" and i dont particularly want to be associated with them at all. Although I do believe I am an anti-fascist. What is one to do.

Get over it, it doesn't matter. You don't get to choose who shares your ideals any more than you get to choose who likes pineapple on their pizza.

No... lol. "Propaganda" didn't paint the antifa movement in a bad light. Whatever perception the populace holds about them is their own doing.

Wow... its all fascinating... cuz now you think anyone against "Antifa" is against anti-fascism. Is that right?

IDK if you've heard, but countries all over the world are becoming more and more riddled with fascists in seats of power. What was left of the US's democracy is crumbling away as we speak. There are people in powerful positions with a vested interest on demonizing those who would fight against them or call them out. Those people 100% are absolutely spewing propaganda to that effect, doing things like labeling antifa as a terrorist organization.

... Yes. This isn't a gotcha, and if you've been reading the previous comments in this thread, you'd understand why.
