The thing your not seeing is BLM and Antifa is just an idea people have.
Just an idea? So where has all the money gone? Is that imaginary money?
I'm sick of the idiotic BS and excuses from the radical leftists. Maybe your home needs to be burned to the ground by this "idea" and then you would understand.
I hope this is forever burned in our memories how fraudulent and pro-fascism big parts of the Conservative base are. All this talk about being pro-freedom, but given the opportunity, most of y'all can't wait to become jack boot thugs. I guess the spirit of the Confederacy is alive & well.
we'll agree on this. I wouldn't propose what the OP claims for any reason.
Now, would a concerted effort to arrest ALL lawbreakers at these events make a difference to those organizations? I don't know. But it's a perfectly legal option.

I visit a few different forums, that lean left and right. To stay within the TOS, I'm saying all this without mentioning any names. I've seen more people here suggest killing fellow citizens, taking away rights, etc. I've seen this forum call people sub-human, suggest liberals be put in work camps, I've been told me and my family deserve to die because they think I'm liberal. The mentality of the extreme right (Trump supporter extreme right, not conservatives as a whole) is genuinely scary. I do NOT see such widespread suggestions of violence from the extreme left forums I visit. On left wing forums, many people think I'm conservative, given my views are fairly middle of the road. I get heat on those forums because of that too, but it's not violent.
True. The KKK is an actual organization, with officials and such. Antifa? No such organization. Just some people that head out to economic summits to protest. Why people assume that they are involved in BLM protests is beyond me.

I've seen more people here get excited about killing fellow citizens, taking away rights, etc. I've seen this forum call people sub-human, suggest liberals be put in work camps, I've had threats on my and my family's lives from people on this forum because they think I'm liberal.

And what's scarier is that for all the talk about being vigilant against tyranny, this is pretty much a paint by numbers power grab by a autocrat. This is text book. Starting with the cult of personality down to delegitimizing press and over to coming up with excuses for wielding military force inside your own borders...
And again, it's the people who say that the very purpose of this country is to stand up against tyranny that are opening the gates for Caesar.
If your a right wing gun nut that didn't like Nazis and drove Nazis off your pretty much antifa, even if your right wing mindset sees them as enemies. But your really just one of them with a different idea of antifa.
Claiming Pantifa isn't an organization is like claiming the Sturmabteilung (Brownshirts) weren't an organization. They are the equivalent-both are the violent, paramilitary arm of a socialist party using terror, fear and intimidation to drive political change. Much as the Brownshirts helped enable the Nazi's rise to poer, Pantifa is doing the same with the left-wing branch of the Democraptic party.

Who is their leader? Who do they report to? Where's the org chart? How are they funded - by who and to who?

And yet, the people committing violent acts, destroying businesses, burning neighborhoods, attacking police, burning police precincts, blocking highways, dragging people from their cars and assaulting them, are the FAR LEFT. I expect the usual stupidity from the left...bubub Charlottesville, an example of ONE nutjob-while we have far left terrorists doing far worse every single night, in cities across this country. I have to wonder if this isn't a little like what 1917 Russia was like, when the ignorant mob of fools took power through violence.
