Following history, fascism first came about and a named ideology in WW1, not WW2. Whole it brewed and came to a head in ww2, it was first really spearheaded by Italy in WW1 and the early 20th. Which then spread to Germany and was embraced.

Okay, but this is my comment:

As far as I know, the first people to physically fight against fascism are WW2 veterans. Of course, antifa does not imply only physical fighting, but in context here of the US Govt labeling antifa a violent terrorist organization, it makes sense to bring up the first physical antifa fighters were fighting at the US Govt's demand against fascism.
