Liberals type CCP instead of CPC. I'll type AmeriKKKa instead of America. (lemmygrad.ml)

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.

I think it is:

to make similar to Soviet Union's name;
Piss of China for having a formal name.

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

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.
