It's more about whether you're authoritarian.

A lot of 'antifacists' i know are the first people to scream at others for 'being out of line' on a political issue. They claim to be anti-facist but practice politics like facists by trying to intimidate, harass, demean, and bully anyone who disagrees with them. Because they are the authority in their mind.

In my mind they act just like the fascist Trump people they claim to be against, they just use different sets of words when they are harassing/screaming/threatening people.
