No information

I do not understand why a debater would choose to forfeit.

Click bait bullshit.

By that standard they would be many thousands of organizations, not a singular one. Also you'd be in a unique organization with everyone whom you've ever kinda made some kind of plans with. Such a standard leads to the word being all but meaningless.

In common English, organizations are defined by order, and always have a hierarchy (a few claim to be flat, such as the Catholic Church, in which The Pope is no higher at all than any priest... Their words on it do not match reality).

Antifa is a disorganized movement. There is no leadership, nor standards at all... Heck, I've met literal Neo-Nazis who identify as "Antifa."

should be easy to prove they are an organization. They meet before rallies and plan things as a group. Thats organization.

Id join if mor than 2 day time period but interested in watching debate either way.

Not an organization.

I advise changing the resolution to “antifa are often terrorists.” This would give you flexibility to show a widespread pattern of terrorist activities committed in their name, without needing to prove all or most; nor the obvious kritik that it’s not an organization.

You could also have a debate literally on if they are an organization, or for this one specify “assuming they’re an organization, antifa qualifies as a terrorist organization”
