管你赞不赞同,多数胜算

Take PR exec Justine Sacco for example. Late last year, this woman tweeted a joke on her way to Africa, and by the time she landed, she was fired.

就拿公关执行官贾斯汀-萨科来说吧。去年,这个女人在去非洲的途中在推特网上发了一个笑话,结果等她刚下飞机就被解雇了。

I don't agree with her termination, and I'm sure she doesn't either, but our opinions don't matter, because the majority spoke.

我觉得她不该被解雇,而且我肯定她本人也不服,但这又能怎样?大部分人说了算。

The Internet is as close to a true democracy as we have in this world, so, for good or bad, the majority rules.

当今世界,互联网跟真正的民主不相上下。不论好坏,都是大部分人说了算。
