    I get massive whiplash every time someone abbreviates the secret service

        Nah, he’s a literal fascist. It might be dickish to the secret service given a different context, but my comment was clearly aimed at him rather than them.

        We don’t put US in front of other acronyms like that. SC, DoJ, EPA, etc. Putting it in front of SS is just making it obvious you don’t want it to be called SS lol

        It’s just a coincidence; the Secret Service existed long before Hitler’s SS. We’ve got prior claim to the acronym
