The Antichrist and the Katechon are Girardian mirror images—memetically entangled opposites—such that the Katechon (restraining force) always risks becoming the Antichrist through a reversal of perspective, exemplified by the Nero-Claudius relationship where the good emperor was the Katechon but his opposite (Nero) was still a Roman emperor.

“Anything that's sort of like the opposite, this is a Girardian cut, is always going to be memetically entangled...there's always a risk that the Katechon becomes the Antichrist...Claudius the the good emperor was the Katechon...Nero's the opposite of Claudius but they're both they're both Roman emperors”
