The OFFICIAL NAME of the Party in English is "The Communist Party of China".

Not "the correct translation". The OFFICIAL NAME.

It follows, incidentally, the same pattern of naming in a whole bunch of other countries. The Communist Party of Canada, not The Canadian Communist Party. The Communist Party of Cuba, not The Cuban Communist Party. The Communist Party of Korea, not the Korean Communist Party. Etc. etc. etc.

But hey, you don't have to believe me. Just go to their official site: http://cpc.people.com.cn/. Then try http://ccp.people.com.cn/ and see where that gets you.

Getting a name correct is the very most basic element that gets you credibility. If you can't do that, anything else you say on the subject is highly suspect.

Consider how much credibility I'd have if I babbled about Germany as "The German Federal Republic" (or, more extremely, translated it like you did and came up with "The Dutch's Land's Federal Republic") or about the USA as "The American United States". Extrapolate.

How funny of you to suggest the CCP is entitled to name itself in English

Imagine suggesting that ignorant American dipshits should get any say in how CPC is named.

The troll reek is strong from this one.

He lacks substance and mainly exists to troll, something like what Ivan Avalos also on Lemmy. You can read the description and become familiar with most of these types of people here. https://lemmy.ml/u/avalos

Edit: just checked, he changed his description recently. He proudly claimed that he is on Lemmy just to troll "tankies" and authoritarian buzzwords.

So you hate both China and Russia? It almost sounds like a script everyone is familiar with...

They are not credible, and are basically what I call wordsmith weasels. I advise you to stop wasting time with these trolls, honestly. If someone like me from India can get it right, anyone should be able to. The key lies in moral integrity. They lack that.

The downvote patterns are observable in this thread, as are their argumentations like quoting not the institution (CPC) but a Western encyclopedia like Britannica as an authority on CPC. This reeks of their Western chauvinist attitude towards rest of the world, which I want to see dying off of this planet.
