That's a nonsensical argument to be honest. Again, nobody is calling the UK Kingdom United. All the names for UK stem from the way people of UK choose to call themselves, these aren't imposed on them from outside.
The fact that people in the west insist on deliberately calling the party differently from the way party chooses to call itself shows an incredible amount of chauvinism.
Only thing brits get pissed off about is calling the UK England, because all the countries hate England including probably the English.
I don't see how it's nonsensical. Makes perfect sense to me. Call the country what people know the country as. You want to call the United Kingdom, Kingdom United do it. You will obviously get raised eyebrows because you will only be the one calling it that.
I don't really know what more I can say.
You still haven't answered the original question why westerners insist on calling CPC differently from what it officially calls itself or what the rationale for that is.
I have. You just disagree with it.
you really haven't
... Then either I don't posses the words to sufficiently explain it to you or you need to rephrase the question.
It's likely a mixture of both.
seems to me that you don't actually have an explanation for why westerners refuse to use the name CPC which is the official name of the party
Seems to me you won't accept any explanation except for your own. I think we are devolving into an argument.
Seems to me that you failed to provide an explanation, and refuse to acknowledge that. Clearly there's not much point continuing the discussion.
What do you think this means?
It means that you think you've answered the question when you very clearly haven't. Again, the reason people in the west would choose to intentionally keep misspelling the name of the party is very clear, but if you feel the need to keep doing mental gymnastics you do you.
Okay then I shall see you at the Olympics for mental gymnastics then. We should get silver and gold. This is just Ad Hominen on both sides now.
