FIFE can reach out to these people the hand of friendship. Unless the LP changes a great deal, which is unlikely, this creates a niche. This is the organization for people who like the ideas of the libertarians but think the Libertarian Party is too extreme. People who feel this way can wear a feather and come to FIFE meetings expecting to find some agreement. Many hard core libertarians are never seen by the Libertarian Party because they have no belief in politics.
FIFE is beyond politics, it is culture.
People who despise all things political can wear a feather and go to FIFE meetings expecting to find some agreement. People who just want to be left alone can wear a feather. The loose party atmosphere is intended to encourage lots of individual conversations. People generally like to eat and drink and talk. If the regulars bring drinks and snacks and others can be convinced to contribute to a kitty it need not be expensive.
