閱王洛莞先生大作「中國網路草根詞語顯示力量」,真是又悲又喜,悲哀的是數千年文明古國被中共政權作賤了六十年,變成了一個公義缺失、道德淪喪的國家;欣喜的是現時中國網民已達三億八千四百萬(見1月15日中國網際網路路信息中心(CNNIC)在京發布《第25次中國網際網路路發展狀況統計報告》) ,在話語權被高度壟斷的國度裡形成了強大的民間輿論,迫使中共不得不懲處被網民窮追猛打的貪腐濫權官吏,迫使中共不敢再欺壓弱小群體予捕予殺。用海外輿論的話說就是「網民拿到話語權,改變了遊戲規則,促進了法制化,撼動了官僚體制,網路問政給中國民主帶來一線曙光。」
更可喜的是中國大陸獨有的網路詞彙黑色幽默走出了中國,讓世界各國瞭解今天中國大陸的社會現狀,爭取他們對中國民主化的理解和支持。在此筆者為王先生的大作作些補充,將近年來蒐集到的中國大陸新創英文網語,摘精彩者加以注譯列舉如下,供讀者欣賞和指正:
