The "party of the internet" is the next to come, I think, in the USA. When it comes about politics, Italy is more or less 20 years early compared with USA. When people will get tired of Trump, you will see "the party of the internet" to start. You will be served with your Beppe Grillo, soon.
Btw, I see this "quitliano" on your blog. Are you sure it is not like "Quintiliano"? "Quitliano" is not respecting rules of italian language about sounds , because of "tl", which can be hardly pronounced with italian rules. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_phonology ) Both T and L are palatal/alveolar, and there is no elision. ( https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ortografia_della_lingua_italiana) Is it a typo? Just a curiosity.
It could very well be. I'm an orphan and not sure which parent the name came from. I do know that the immigration people here in America took liberties with names at Ellis Island (where most Sicilian families came in)
