Off topic, by why in god do people refer to the democrats as the DNC as if it's the acronym for the democratic party?

It's a bit like someone calling every piece in chess a "pawn". It's not right technically, and it sounds dumb.

Democratic National Committee. It's a good shorthand for the establishment fucks who run everything.

Also, I recently learned that the Democratic party was founded before the Grand Old Party. That annoys me more.
