True. It's a great litmus test but it's still extremely painful to hear from people who are well meaning but stubborn since media outlets in the west only say CCP.
It's one of those red scare hurdles that is everywhere, especially in the US of A.
I understand. It irks me too as it reminds me of the disastrous pivoting to Asia that I feel is part of the current trend towards a more unstable world.
On another level, it annoys the hell out of me just as a matter of trying to be polite to someone by referring to them by how they call themselves.
