TED演讲:网络暴力的失控(6)

And then came the trolls:

继而就是那些寻畔的了：

Somebody else on that wrote,

有人在那上面写道：

"Somebody HIV-positive should rape¹ this bitch and then we'll find out if her skin color protects her from AIDS."

“应该找个艾滋阳性的去强奸那母狗，我们就能知道她的肤色能否保护她不染艾滋了。”

And that person got a free pass. Nobody went after that person.

如此恶言者倒免挨板子了。竟没有一个人去追剿那家伙。

We were all so excited about destroying Justine, and our shaming brains are so simple-minded,

我们人人都为了要毁灭贾丝婷而忙得不可开交。我们的众辱心态是如此的一心一意，

that we couldn't also handle destroying somebody who was inappropriately destroying Justine.

竟无法同时毁灭那些正在无理毁灭贾丝婷的人。

Justine was really uniting a lot of disparate groups that night, from philanthropists to "rape the bitch."

贾丝婷在那一晚着实团结了许多种类各异的群体，从做慈善的，到叫喊“强奸那母狗”的都有。

Women always have it worse than men. When a man gets shamed, it's, "I'm going to get you fired."

这类事件中女性遭受的侮辱总比男性更糟糕。男性在遭受众辱时，通常是：“我要搞到你被炒鱿鱼为止。”

When a woman gets shamed, it's, "I'm going to get you fired and raped² and cut out your uterus."

当女性被众辱是，通常是：“我要搞到你被炒鱿鱼，被强奸、割掉你的子宫。”

And then Justine's employers got involved:

然后呢，贾丝婷的雇主也搭腔了：

And that's when the anger turned to excitement:

就这样，愤怒变成了兴奋：

What we had was a delightful³ narrative⁴ arc. We knew something that Justine didn't.

这无疑成了一段精彩的大题目：尽人皆晓的，唯贾丝婷毫不知情。

Can you think of anything less judicial⁵ than this?

还有比这个更不公正的事情吗？

Justine was asleep on a plane and unable to explain herself, and her inability was a huge part of the hilarity⁶.

贾丝婷当时在飞机上睡着，没机会为自己解释，而这恰恰是这场闹剧的一大原因。

On Twitter that night, we were like toddlers crawling towards a gun.

那天晚上，大家在推特上面就像小屁孩爬着去够玩具枪似的。

Somebody worked out exactly which plane she was on, so they linked to a flight tracker website.

有人查到她的航班号，就把航班号链接到一个航班跟踪网站上面。

A hashtag began trending worldwide: # hasJustineLandedYet?

马上，这一标签开始在全球走红：#贾丝婷到达没有？
