Every single group on the left must come up with a plan to deal with fascists gloming onto the anti-war movement. Fascists and the far-right must be removed wherever and whenever they show up. Nazis out. Always.
Just like this:

Populism or any kind of "red-brown alliance" gives fascists breathing room to grow, and the opportunity to recruit and corrupt.

All organizers should make sure that an anti-oppression platform is in place, that fascists and the far right are physically removed, and to make sure that the targets of fascist violence aren't the ones who have to do all of this work.
If you think this all theoretical, it's not. In 2017, months before the "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville where he was scheduled to speak, Richard Spencer & bunch of other Nazis protested against US intervention in Syria.
NO WAR. NO NAZIS.
