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?

No it's CCC vs CCC.

Chinese China of China vs. Chinese China China. The former is the correct one.

Jokes aside CPC is a dog whistle for cool people and CCP is a sign that someone is a big ol' lib. I don't correct people because the big ol' libs don't need to learn this, they should get radicalized first.

There should be a term for a dog whistle but its for comrades rather than chuds. Maybe bats?

A word that identifies the user as an "insider" is shibboleth

Plus using that word makes it clear we're a bunch of nerds, i.e. accurate.
