Why are so many noteworthy female governmental figure referred to by their initials?
RBG - Ruth Bader Ginsberg
AOC - Alexandria Ocasio Cortez
ACB - Amy Coney Barrett
HRC - Horrible Rotten C@nt
I mean, there was JFK, but why are so many women referred to that way these days? Is it a Twitterworld thing?

It's probably a Twitterbot NPC thing. Especially Hillary.

Safety with the lefty ones, if you say their full names 3 times they appear in front of you and if you don't have a pentagram set up you are screwed.

I would go with Sabaton, but that is Swedish Power Metal with an emphasis on Military History.

Never put any trust in pentagrams; always preferred kilograms of "00 buck"....
