Antifa is a bogeyman invented by the alt-right, because they need to see their enemies as organized and perceivable threats to continue generating the fear necessary for their grift job. Same with BLM which they equate to a modern Black Panther Party. The radical elements that might walk under those banners are more or less fringe anarchic individuals that would march under plenty of other names but there is no real organized alt-left militant structure that is combating them as their fear game requires. Having these made-up enemies is a tactic which also makes it easy to label and accuse any individual that doesn't agree with their beliefs as being part of antifa to instantly judge and ostracize them. It's similar to how authoritarian leaders like Putin and Hitler invent or puff up certain groups as a pretext for ethnic cleansing or war.
There were recent video/streams of the Freedumb Convoys where the truckers were calling out on their CB radios "antifa vehicles on my 6, keep your head on a swivel!" etc. like they were X-Wing pilots being hounded by imaginary Tie Fighters.
