So the other night -- yesterday -- we were at dinner, and there were two discussions going on.
昨晚我們一起吃飯時，有兩個討論在同時進行。
On one side you were talking with people around the table -- and that was a nice, constructive discussion.
一個發(fā)生在你和同桌其他人之間--這個討論氣氛良好、很有建設(shè)性。
On the other, every time you turned to your phone, there is this deluge of insults. Yeah.
另一個討論發(fā)生在你的手機里，滿眼污言穢語。沒錯。
This happened last night. We had like a TED dinner last night.
這事兒發(fā)生在昨晚的TED晚宴上。
We were chatting and it was lovely and nice, and I decided to check Twitter.
我們在聊天，氣氛融洽，然后我就去查看推特。
Somebody said, "You are a white supremacist."
有人說：“你是個白人至上者?！?/p>
And then I went back and had a nice conversation with somebody,
然后我回到餐桌，和某人愉快地交談了一會兒，
and then I went back to Twitter, somebody said my very existence made the world a worse place.
再次打開推特，又有人說我的存在讓這個世界變得更糟糕了。
My friend Adam Curtis says that maybe the Internet is like a John Carpenter movie from the 1980s,
我朋友亞當·柯蒂斯說也許網(wǎng)絡(luò)就像80年代約翰·卡彭特的電影，
when eventually everyone will start screaming at each other and shooting each other,
最終人人都聲嘶力竭地開始對罵，掏出槍來開始對射，
and then eventually everybody would flee to somewhere safer,
直到最后人人都逃去一個更安全的地方，
and I'm starting to think of that as a really nice option. Jon, thank you. Thank you, Bruno.
我在想那的確是一個不錯的選擇。喬恩，謝謝你。謝謝你，布魯諾。
