What is Cato's version of the rothbardians' lament (here in an article by David Gordon at Lew Rockwell.com) that Rothbard was basically pushed out of Cato for insisting on proper Austrian principles while the wider "libertarian movement" was pushed into mainstream ideas with people like Tyler Cowen and so on -- as mandated by what he colorfully calls the Kochtopus?

NB: I'm a mainstream economist, and fairly opposed to Austrian economics from methodological reasons, so I'd have reasons to applaud pluralism in the libertarian movement, but David Gordon's take is quite sinister.
