This has always been the way
We need more people to take us seriously, they get taken seriously by default.
That always confused me. Why do so many people call it CCP? That’s not the proper name of the party so what gives? My professors do this all the time and I even mildly called it out in one of my essays because it’s just so stupid.
Racism is a part of it, they’re not the communist party of China, they’re the Chinese Communist (party), playing up the yellow peril and the red threat at once and then dropping off with the party part at the end which they couldn’t care less about. It centers and racializes it. We’re not just fighting commies, we’re fighting Chinese commies.
I definitely think racism is a big part of it, but now I wonder if they do the same to other communist parties.
I think it is:
- to make similar to Soviet Union’s name;
- Piss of China for having a formal name.
Interesting, I never made the connection to the CCCP… I guess it could have started that way and then devolved into what it is now.
I think it started as 1, but I’m confident that no lib knows about the CCCP anymore. It’s all tradition and spite now
I think some people do it out of being extremely petty, as a way to “own” China. Like China cares what John Youtube calls their party. There is also the attempts to deligitimatize it from standard Communist Party naming conventions (Communist Part of Country) and to highlight racial elements instead.
I honestly think a lot of people just do it out of ignorance. The first group is so pervasive that I think a lot of people just legitimtately think CCP is the correct term without knowing better.
I also think a majority of people do it because they genuinely believe thats the proper way to say the name and its abbreviation, although the way it started is more nefarious. Maybe “nefarious” is a bit dramatic but it is extremely annoying especially when people in politics that interact with the CPC a lot should know better, and they probably do but say the party name wrong just to be spiteful.
I’ll go for “USian” instead, becaus for whatever reasons it seem to pissed them off more.
That cuz it sound like Asian to them… Lmayo
This is true
Estadounidense
This is always what I use. That is one reason, but I also don’t want to group all of the Americas in with the US and it makes that distinction pretty clear.
I type libcuck instead of liberal
Libs works pretty well
That’s just a bit wooden (unnatural) to dat
What about Americucks
Or Cancucks (For Canadians)…
That’s somethin’…
Very fitting since they let the politicians and even make excuses for them to fuck their lives over.
