That is not to say that some organized groups don't wave an Antifa banner.

I think thus far it is fairer to say when violence happens people blame a nebulous concept rather than just assuming some dumb ass teenager who had no clue what the riot was in aid of just rocked up to cause trouble, so far I have seen a lot of right wing and media blame of a non existent organization but I have yet to see any one in court proclaim they are soldiers of antifa and they are fighting for minorities everywhere which I would expect in any vaguely political case, hell even the numpty proud boys claim to be defending Canada when they go into the dock
