I've been asked to comment on the Antichrist. This will be a bit long.
John is the only biblical author to specifically use the term "antichrist". Using my favorite, the NASB 1977 version:
Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have arisen; from this we know that it is the last hour.... Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son. (1 John 2:18 & 22)
...and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; and this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. (1 John 4:3)
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist. (2 John 1:7)
Notice the pattern: It is very specific about any attempt to deny that Jesus was the Messiah and Son of God. However, the last reference points to what was then a new tactic of suggesting that Jesus might have been divine, but that He was just a phantom. He only appeared to suffer and die on the Cross; it was a hoax. The Judaizers began to pursue a two-point attack intent on denying that Jesus was both human and divine. He could only be one or the other by their logic. You may recognize that this doctrine was the earliest source of what eventually became the Gnostic heresies.
The net result is that John uses the word "antichrist" not as a specific person, but as a symbolic reference to the inner core of Judaism. After Christ, the whole Jewish identity now hangs on their struggle to destroy the gospel message. The Jewish leadership had developed their false Messianic Expectations, an ugly parody of the real Messianic Promises and the blessings of the Covenant*. They had perverted the Covenant of Moses, exchanging their commission to shine the light of truth for a racist hatred toward all Gentiles, and the Covenant blessings into a drive to rule the world. They chose this world's pleasures over Eternity. When Christ came to restore the original intent of Moses to turn their hearts toward Eternity, they murdered Him with a visceral hatred that only got stronger when His disciples began to spread the message.
They haven't lost that hatred, but they have gotten distracted by other problems they have faced historically. The Jewish elite agenda has always been the racist promotion of their ethnic domination of the world, but they decided early on that the strategy was to manipulate and lie, to prey upon the weaknesses of every different Gentile nation in the world. Specifically, they have become obsessed with hijacking northern European white culture as the single greatest hindrance on their path to global domination. Genuine Christian faith is currently not their primary target, as it was during the first couple of centuries after Christ.
That could change. If they succeed in destroying the white cultural identity such that they no longer see it as a threat, they will almost certainly turn around and start to focus on attacking the gospel message again. If you can understand this point, then you are in a good place to assess what they are doing now. If you understand "divide and conquer", then you can understand what they are planning.
The filthy cult of feminism is their creation. It's not hard to discover they don't believe in it themselves; Jewish women might make a lot noise, but they play no role in Jewish elite machinations. It's just one more Pharisaical hypocrisy. The elites use it as the basis for all the various leftist ideologies in the West. Western feminism and leftism are virtually the same beast. The globalists are just cannon fodder for the Jewish elite. Globalism is simply a beast to ride to victory. We cannot guess when that beast will be sacrificed, but that day is coming. The globalists are being played.
For those not given to feminism, there's Zionism. Granted, the globalists tolerate Zionism, just like a true feminist wife might tolerate her husband. Western men have been slaves of the feminists from very early in western history. Where do you think Mariolatry came from? The globalists imagine they are using the Zionists, but it's the Jewish elite who are using both. The Jewish elite never really cared that much about a Jewish homeland. It was merely a way of keeping the activists busy. It's a distraction for the whole Gentile world, as well as the Jewish peasantry the leadership have always despised.
When the moment is right, the Jewish elite will throw Zionism under the bus. Israel will be destroyed and they won't care. For the time being, the identity of the Jewish elite is mostly among the neocons. Despite the way neocons appear to favor the Zionist project, it's not hard to find in their early writings a rejection of the whole idea. They would prefer the Jews never have a homeland, because the moral leverage to provoke white ethnic guilt is stronger that way. Still, the neocons are playing along for now.
In mundane political terms, it is the neocons who rule the current destruction of the West. At some point, they are going to sense that this job is accomplished and they will turn to seizing control over the rest of the world. My estimate is that they won't seek literal rule, but will be quite happy with rule-by-proxy. The primary mechanism has always been control of the banking system. Debt enslavement is the key. To also hold ideological dominance through control of academia, entertainment/media, and social sciences is just to ensure things go smoothly. Depending on how you look at it, they hold control of most of the rest of the world. There is some resistance from Russia, but it appears to be a token resistance that could be mollified in the near future. China seems to be a tougher case. We know too little of what they are doing in China to say much about it.
But at some point, the neocons will sense they have sufficient power to turn their attention back to the gospel message. If there is anyone today who is a real threat to the gospel, it is neocons. They have inherited the Judaizer mission of silencing true faith. To their advantage is that the mainstream western churches have been mostly subdued. The entanglement of the early church leadership in politics and other worldly concerns, particularly under the reign of Constantine, was the root of keeping the true gospel message hidden.
In order for the scenario in Revelation to play out in reality, there would have to be a revival of genuine otherworldly religion. The neocons appear to believe that the gospel is long dead, and that's largely correct. There's very little genuine biblical mysticism in the world right now. But if we grasp the fabric of biblical prophecy as a whole, it will come back to life before the End Times. Persecution will rise as the various client rulers of the neocons start to feel threatened by the rise of a genuine gospel message. The human race cannot be ruled effectively if people don't really fear worldly consequences.
If you can agree with me that John's use of the term "antichrist" refers to a spiritual force manifested in an agenda more than a specific figure, then you can easily see that the neocons are the current primary personification of Antichrist. At least some among them surely know that the gospel message will break out again sometime in the future. When people willingly take up the Cross again, they will see this as the existential threat it has always been for them. All their hopes and dreams -- the false Messianic Expectations -- will go up in smoke.

*Footnote: The Covenant promises can be summarized as reasonable prosperity, safety from natural and political threats, and social stability. Taken together, these were the meaning of shalom -- peace with God. These were the mitigations of mortal sorrows that God promised would come from walking in His revelation. The true Messianic Promises were rooted in leaving this world, and finding the full measure of God's peace in Eternity. The false Messianic Expectations were that earth itself would cease growing thorns and thistles, and nature would willingly grant the Jews all their hedonistic desires. It was basically the Temptations in the Wilderness: unlimited food (bread from stones), miraculous protections (jumping from the pinnacle of the Temple Plaza), and global political dominance. The Jewish apocryphal literature specifically mentions limitless supplies of food and goods, miraculous protections, and the whole Gentile world rushing to surrender to the Jews their property and lives.
