Correcting libs on CCP vs. CPC (hexbear.net)

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 understand. It irks me too as it reminds me of the disastrous pivoting to Asia that I feel is part of the current trend towards a more unstable world.

On another level, it annoys the hell out of me just as a matter of trying to be polite to someone by referring to them by how they call themselves.
