李大立:黑色幽默走出中国

阅王洛莞先生大作“中国网络草根词语显示力量”,真是又悲又喜,悲哀的是数千年文明古国被中共政权作贱了六十年,变成了一个公义缺失、道德沦丧的国家;欣喜的是现时中国网民已达三亿八千四百万(见1月15日中国互联网络信息中心(CNNIC)在京发布《第25次中国互联网络发展状况统计报告》) ,在话语权被高度垄断的国度里形成了强大的民间舆论,迫使中共不得不惩处被网民穷追猛打的贪腐滥权官吏,迫使中共不敢再欺压弱小群体予捕予杀。用海外舆论的话说就是“网民拿到话语权,改变了游戏规则,促进了法制化,撼动了官僚体制,网络问政给中国民主带来一线曙光。”

更可喜的是中国大陆独有的网络词汇黑色幽默走出了中国,让世界各国了解今天中国大陆的社会现状,争取他们对中国民主化的理解和支持。在此笔者为王先生的大作作些补充,将近年来搜集到的中国大陆新创英文网语,摘精彩者加以注译列举如下,供读者欣赏和指正:
