发帖数: 42149 | 2 如果说川普是美国第一任网红总统一点也不过分。他在社交网络上相当活跃，这也导致反对声、流言蜚语满天飞。比如霍金就曾说川普是a demagogue who seems to appeal to the lowest common denominator（“最小公分母”也指“低俗受众”、“平庸群体”，demagogue就是靠煽动民意获利的政客）。
还说：“Trump bad man. Real bad man.” （川普是一个非常坏的男人）
字里行间都是对川普的不满，川普却没做什么回应。
但有个人随意说了几句，就引发川普的回呛，说他是一个失败的分析家。
川普回呛的这个“失败的分析家”，是华裔数学家陶哲轩。
陶哲轩究竟说了什么呢？
首先来给大家科普一下安徒生童话中《皇帝的新衣》必须涉及的两个词语：
共有知识和共同知识。
这两个词看起来差不多，实际上却差之千里。
共有知识是说每个人都知道的信息；
而共同知识则指：每个人都知道的信息，而且每个人都知道别人也知道该信息。
陶哲轩用《皇帝的新衣》分析：皇帝没穿衣服是“共有知识”，但不是“共同知识”。在谎言被那个小孩儿戳破之前，每个人都知道皇帝是裸着的，... 阅读全帖 |

Pelosi只是一个demagogue而已。我们的目的是为了让所有政客，包括Pelosi,都不再敢
靠攻击中国来挣cheap cheers。因此我们要让政客们看到攻击中国就会让华人选民都变
成single issue voters, the issue being China。美国的evangelicals就是因为
focus在moral issue上,印度的Muslims就是因为vote as a block而在政治上拥有远超
其人口比例的影响力。道理政治学中早就分析了：比如Pelosi攻击中国人权是为了讨好
liberal选民，但这个issue只是liberal选民care的很多问题之一，绝不是最重要的。
它不一定因此就能多挣几张选票。但如果华人只因这一点就不选它，它就要丢掉一个
block的选票。两相权衡，它就知道厉害关系了。现在它和其他政客在中国问题上如此
肆无忌惮，就是因为华人沉默太久。
政客们都要上的重要一课就是：任何争议不仅要看其两边人数的对比，更要看两边民众
