--are the folks reported on genuine extreme-left or false-flag actual-extreme-right, or what?--

per wiki (which is the best description i've seen):

"...Antifa is not a unified organization but rather a movement without a hierarchical leadership structure,
comprising multiple autonomous groups and individuals. The movement is loosely affiliated and has no
chain of command, with antifa groups instead sharing "resources and information about far-right activity
across regional and national borders through loosely knit networks and informal relationships of trust
and solidarity..."
en.wikipedia.org

so, knowing 'genuine' or 'false' is problematic.
my guess is that the action you cite is probably 'genuine', as portland seems to have lots of antifas,
including militant anarchists.
just a guess. maybe someone else on the thread knows more.

Today's Portland protesters appear to be the usual crowd of left-wing types...

Protesters smash windows at the Democratic headquarters in Portland, Ore.
nytimes.com

More than 200 protesters wearing black apparel gathered in Portland, Ore., on Wednesday afternoon, marching against the government, the police and President Biden, and vandalizing the local headquarters of the Democratic Party.

In a city that has seen months of demonstrations over racial injustice, economic inequality, federal law enforcement and corporate power, protesters have vowed to continue their actions no matter who is president. Those who took to the streets on Wednesday said they were a mix of anarchists, antifa and racial justice protesters.

The group marched to the local Democratic headquarters, where some people smashed windows and tipped over dumpsters, lighting the garbage inside one of them on fire. Portland police officers then moved in to make arrests.
