Dictators, autocrats and other strong-willed leaders — elected or not — have a way of acquiring nicknames or grandiose official titles. Some even proclaim their own.

专制君主、独裁者以及其他坚持己见的领袖——不论是不是被选举出来的——常常都有绰号或者浮夸的头衔。有些绰号或头衔甚至是他们自封的。

The latest example is Rodrigo Duterte, presumptive president-elect of the Philippines, known for stop-at-nothing political hardball and a vigilante vow to shoot criminals himself. Admirers and critics call him the Punisher and Duterte Harry.

最近期的一个例子是在菲律宾总统大选中遥遥领先的罗德里戈·杜特地(Rodrigo Duterte)，他以不可阻挡的强硬政治作风和将会亲自射杀犯罪分子的热血誓言闻名。崇拜者和评论人士称其为惩罚者(Punisher)和硬汉杜特地(Duterte Harry)。
