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 don’t correct them, but I do inject the correct spelling in my reply.

I work in coffee and frequently have to deal with names that the (very) white people around me can't pronounce and unless they ask, I don't correct them, I just say it correctly myself.
