英文反击美国人“玩笑”说的交流贴# WaterWorld - 未名水世界

1 楼
这两天在雅虎和时代网站上看，参与打嘴仗，发现美国人最大的说辞就是所谓 玩笑 说
，意思是开玩笑没有错。
今天在Times网站上“中国想要JK第三次道歉。。。”报道下面的评论中与美国人打嘴
仗，得到一点经验教训可以与大家相互交流。下面是我的评论，写的仓促，打嘴仗的英
文不够好，但是意思还比较有说服力。请大家矫正，补充，完善。
Try grab an executive of your utility provider and joke that you would kill
his whole family to save yourself from paying the bill. You would be charged
for death threats, or some kind of trouble with law.
Try let your kid in school joke about killing the whole class. The kid would
be expelled from the school and his parents would be in trouble.
Now this kid advocated for genocide of a people not in school, but on
public broadcasting. And no one is responsible for that?
The kid would have got reprimanded had he joked to kill any one in school,
but it is OK ed by the US society when he "joked" about killing the Chinese
people over debts? And on ABC broad casting? If this is not racism, what is?
And the show was made by adult professionals who at least edited it and
aired it, and by the standard practice, most likely wrote out the script,
why are they also not accountable for the show? Because it calls for
genocide of the Chinese? If this is not racism, what is?
To you it might be "funny", but for the targeted person or people, it won't
be. As I suggested before, you can try to be funny to joke to an executive
of your utility provider and joke that you would kill his whole family to
save yourself from paying the bill. You would be charged for death threats,
or some kind of trouble with law.The law does not care if any bystander
would feel funny, but only cares the impact your joke made on the person you
targeted.
