Given that they use the Chinese initialism for the Chinese Communist Party (cpc, taken from the literal translation of 中国共产党, instead of CCP), they probably do — i.e., the likelihood they are a Chinese person living in, or having lived most of their life in, China seems high.

certain words express certain meanings, learnt from HN

you are very perceptive, if someone who use CPC rather than CCP, they're either chinese, or pro-china, or worse, communists

what i think is irrelevant, I'm not at the industry which is challenging the west, at least for now

i just say that mindset (like what deepseek ceo said) is super common in China, not something hard to say or forbiddened
