Maybe, but if you had lived the Spanish political environment, if 
everyone here had, you all would inmediately understand it.

Here in Spain, when a new party is born, the comparison is made:

- it supports or /improves/ PSOE stances: good
- it disagrees with PSOE stances: it's a PP satellite ==> it's 
/right-wing, fascist, francoist, machoist/, etc.

e.g., the people who use the /PPirata/ stuff found amusing to find out 
that the International URL is *pp*-international.net

We want to secure for the public opinion our political personality and 
independence, thus that's the reason for us to be so important not being 
called PP -neither nationally nor internationally-. Regards,

P.S.: Actually, even sometimes you've already seen that /right vs left/ 
stuff within the PPI list ...
