After the murder of Charlie Kirk, the famous American conservative and youth leader, the far-left terrorist organization known as "Antifa" is once again at the center of the debate for being a violent group that attacks and kills those who do not share its ideology.
Tyler Robinson, 22 years old, the main suspect, was arrested after killing Kirk on September 10, 2025, at Utah Valley University. After his arrest, it was revealed that he is a member of Antifa, which highlights the organization's history of violence, as it carries out brutal acts against right-wing figures, police officers, and civilians.
Antifa, short for "anti-fascist", is a decentralized network of far-left activists around the world who claim to fight "fascism" but in reality resort to violent tactics to silence anyone who thinks differently, especially right-wing figures.

Emerging in Europe in the 1930s, in the United States it adopted the so-called "direct action" since the 1980s: violent protests, doxxing, and physical assaults. Although it is not on the State Department's terrorism list due to its lack of formal structure, the FBI and DHS associate it with "anarchist extremism". Several projects in Congress have even attempted, unsuccessfully, to classify the group as domestic terrorism.
