In fact, I'd argue that anybody who's not explicitly anti-fascist is at the very least comfortable with fascism.

I am anti-fascist. Neo-Nazis and anyone who espouse similar views will get absolutely no love from me. That doesn't mean I stand with Antifa.

Time for you to move to move to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

So, do enlighten us, what exactly do you claim antifa actually stands for if you're saying they're not acting in the spirit of their name?

Antifa is a decentralized organization of people fighting against fascism. They don’t have a positive ideology, literally the only thing that unifies them is anti fascism. Communists, anarchists, and liberals may all call themselves antifa

Using that logic Republicans could call themselves antifa since almost everyone, Republicans included, is against fascism. It's when you define "fascism" as anything right of Trotsky that people start have issues with your ideology.
