I doubt that's the reason. You've got to remember that the OSA people got their training by propagandizing to people who had already undergone the Hubbard Mind Removal Tech[tm]. The notion that their readers would actually bother to verify what they're saying is completely alien to them. When they see us doing it, the effect on their minds is akin to what would happen to one of us if we saw someone reach into his pockets, take out a wad of tinfoil and start stuffing it into his nose. It enturbulates[tm] them.

When you have their kind of belief system, it really doesn't matter which side the various organizations were on. People who have authoritarian personalities usually aren't able to mentally form differentiated categories. They can understand that the Canadian Civil Liberties Whatever was a party to the case, but they don't distinguish between it being on the plaintiff's side and its being on the defendant's side. A similar mechanism is behind a lot of bigotry; "a member of group X who shoplifted" and "a member of group X who didn't shoplift" are both simply "a member of group X." It's a personality factor, not something to do with a lack of cognitive ability. They have the ability, but can't use it; in some cases they're actually proud that they don't use it, or assert that it would be morally wrong to use it.
