Here's a little tip for you: If you use "CCP" you're basically identifying yourself as an ignoramus whose opinions on the topic can be safely ignored. After all if you can't get the name of an institution correct, what are the odds that you got things that require genuine knowledge and nuance right?

Oh I'm sorry, of course I meant 中國共產黨.

You seem to have overlooked I actually praised the Communist Party of one of the Chinas in my comment.

Or you could use the proper English initialization from their official English name: Communist Party of China. But hey, why not remain an ignoramus and snark instead?

I didn't. It's why I told you instead of rolling my eyes and ignoring you.

Because most English speaking people, even the ones who lived in China, call the party the CCP. Nobody knows what the CPC is.

Interesting that you'd only answer me if I praised the CCP and claim to ignore me otherwise.

There's plenty of ignorant right-wing assholes out there who go around spouting utter gibberish about "TEH CCP" (sic) to the point that if I see "CCP" I quickly scan for the usual (inaccurate) talking points, roll my eyes, and move on. The fact you actually managed to say something good about "TEH CCP" (sic) made me think you had a slightly more balanced viewpoint.

Of course your subsequent performance (and your hilarious romp through my past posts that didn't look even slightly like a toddler throwing a tantrum, nosiree!) made me change my mind, so I'll be going back to the old policy: If I see "CCP" I assume ignorant jackass and move on.
