The person wanted for the pipe bombings, based on the photo of the suspect, was almost certainly Antifa. He was of course not identified because he was wearing clothing that hid every inch of his skin, so you couldn't even tell what race he was, let alone identifying features. Antifa is good at this.
Trump fans are easily identified because they don't hide their identity.
All that said, the peaceful protests at the Capitol were sufficiently successful that Antifa, which was originally an antiglobalist organization, after all, may switch sides.
If you intended not to do too much, you wore a bare face and identifying markings. I'm willing to bet the cops will make people sorry they did so, that this will change in any future incident. If you intended to plant pipe bombs, you were a bit smarter about hiding your face and affiliation.
Identifying people as Antifa seems a daydream. Reds seem to see them popping up everywhere. I still remember the family that wanted to go camping in the woods, but the local militia decided that they were antifa. The local cops and some good Samaritans had to help them move aside the trees that the militia people had chopped down to 'protect' themselves from the family.
