I've seen no evidence that Antifa is anything but a boogeyman - not dissimilar to accusations of communism during the McCarthy era.
We should all be extremely skeptical with the idea that anyone can be accused of being a member of a terrorist organization, and prosecuted on that accusation without overwhelming proof.
Let's just take "terrorist organization" as a metaphor for whatever the right phrase is for an American group that does terrorist-like things, since there is no legal framework with allows an American group to be called or responded to as a terrorist group.
You're right, most of the rioters, assaulters, and murderers probably are not Antifa.
