US President Donald Trump has claimed that the United States would announce Antifa, a group of loosely affiliated Far-Left anti-fascism activists, as a terrorist organisation. Instead, antifa is a group who follow a similar philosophy and tactics. As per The New York Times, the followers of antifa recognize their movement as secretive and has no official figurehead but is organised into autonomous local cells. The members of this group campaign against any actions which they view as authoritarian, homophobic, racist or xenophobic. However, since 2017, antifa started receiving more attention globally after they pointed out anti-fascist protesters, which includes the obtaining of a prominent Alt-Right member, etc.
