Makes them violent extremists

Only if you believe that any violence is extreme. I would disagree, punching fascists is fairly centrist and enjoys broad support.

what I've seen, plenty of antifa folk will use violence and vandalism against people unrelated to the supposed target group.

That is besides the point. You can be against facists and also against Nestle at the same time.

"Centrist" only if you use the sense of a median popular political position, which isn't really what it means. Self-described centrists are actually conservative and tend to be weirdly* okay with Nazis.

*weird if you don't understand the link between capital, the state, conservatism and fascism

I do, and where I live being the first to throw a punch towards anyone for almost any reason is generally frowned upon.

The reason that violence is dangerous in this context is that it can allow a violent minority to oppress and subjugate a majority. By removing it from society in general and de-legitimizing its use the influence of these sorts of people can be effectively minimized.
