i dunno, the way i think about it is basically that the group activity manifests as a response to current cultural trends or values. and since it seeks to undermine those trends or values it is an antisocial response, even if it's taken on by more than one person.
sort of like cults. i think cults are pretty antisocial tbh. especially when they pressure their members to cut off ties with non-cult members. yet if we say that groups can't be antisocial then you'd have to say the same thing about cults, which just doesn't correct to me.
