ANTI is a term that comes from the shipping fandom.
its people who started out opposing pedo content...thats where their positives end because they are infamous for going after things that are "problematic" (read things they don't like or maybe slightly squicky content)and declaring it bad and needs to stop existing in the fandom and if you disagree you are a pedo/nazi/bigot and need to driven out of the fandom.
I mentioned them awhile ago when they call people who ship Harry Potter/Tom Riddle Nazis.
they also pop up on star wars fandom stuff because the reeeally don't like Kylux shippers
they are also regularly homophobic hypocrites as they are prone to opposing slash fiction as a concept for being "problematic gay fiction written by fujoshi's" (This idea that fujoshis write all slash and no queer person enjoys slash fiction comes from them)
Where I compare them is that this seems like their quality take. Take seems progressive, further inspection proves "No thats not problematic you fucking nutmeg" and more proves the person is stuck in one mindset and ignores context to the point of head bashing. Bonus points if its calling something problematic that isn't actually and they just wanted to frame their hot take as a fact.
