    One cannot really build an alliance with an ideology. Alliances are between people. I would be open to allying with people variously influenced by or holding to any ideology that does not itself ally with fascism.

      Agreed. In many ways the idea of ideology is a reductive concept. All ideologies hold some amount of merit and problems. If you try hard enough, there is even a decent argument to be made for kings (no, I’m not arguing for kings, I am simply using it as a talking point). I really don’t subscribe to any one ideology, and I don’t think most people here do either. I like aspects of anarchism, socialism, communism and georgism, all have merits, all have problems. I suspect most people here are the same, we all come to different conclusions from different life stories. We recognize the problem, but our plan for the future by no means has to look the same. Honestly, the “leftist infighting” is our greatest strength, not a weakness.
