It's tiring to tell libs that its actually CPC instead of CCP.

CCP = Chinese China Party (???)
CPC = Chinese Party of China (correct)

I'm literally going to drop kick someone who gets it wrong!!!

Thoughts? Is it worthwhile to correct people on this?

i argued with a lib about this and how westerners did the same thing during vietnam with VCP instead of CPV to racistly emphasize the nationality.. didn't go anywhere they just called me a crazy reaching tankie and said chinese communist party "rolls off the tongue better"
