Truth be told, a lot of this originated with the late Carl Oglesby, who was a proponent of this stuff even back when was president of SDS. Oglesby was a long time buddy of Murray Rothbard, who as a libertarian, had advocated an alliance with the New Left in the 1960s.

Noam Chomsky has, at times, flirted with this idea too, as when he has praised Old Right icons like Taft for their isolationism.
