You say that like CPC doesn't carry an ideological implication of its own. To the average person, the distinction between calling it the Chinese Communist Party and the Communist Party of China is so miniscule that they're not going to seriously engage with you if you earnestly try and take that angle. Go ahead and nitpick over how people refer to the party at your ideology's expense. I sure as shit won't stop you.



It shows that you make no effort to get non-US media and don't have informed opinions.


I make plenty of effort to stay informed, I just don't make any effort to argue inconsequential shit to signal that I'm "more informed". At some point in this conversation, you just quit addressing anything other than what you believe to be the most accurate initialism for the Party like anybody cares. You're either deflecting or are arguing silly points for the love of the game. If you genuinely believe what you're implying you do, you're actively repelling people from your ideology.
