Plural form of antifascist; multiple people who oppose and fight against fascism and fascist movements.
From anti- (against) + fascists (plural of fascist). This plural form is commonly used when discussing groups of people who unified against fascist regimes.
The Spanish Civil War (1936-39) saw antifascists from around the world—Americans, British, Soviets, Germans, French—volunteer to fight against Franco's fascist forces, making it a kind of international 'dress rehearsal' for WWII where ideological opponents became military allies.
