Agreed on your final point, but the existence of anti-Christian figures in history does not at all mean that we have already gotten through the period of antichrist. People who read their Bibles, know history, and aren’t duped by e.g. the chiliastic heresy can see that plainly.

Seeing future fulfillment of Daniel and the book of Revelation only became popular with the publication of the Schofield reference Bible.
But since you're so versed in history I'm sure you knew that.
I'm sure you also know that having differing eschatological viewpoints isn't in the category of heresy as well.
I’m an Orthodox Christian and posted from that perspective. In the Orthodox Church the belief in chiliasm is formally denounced as heresy.
