In this article,I depart,for a moment,from the strategy of citing evidence in my coverage of the"China epidemic."(For my series of articles on the"China epidemic,"click here.)
在这篇文章中，我暂时离开了我在报道"中国疫情"时引用证据的策略(点击此处查看我的"中国疫情"系列文章)
Instead,I want to make a few brief notes on the subject of power.
相反，我想就权力这个主题做一些简短的注释。
For many or most people,there is a kind of programming in the mind which urges the acceptance of viruses as powerful.This programming results in visceral emotional reactions toward microbes.
对于许多或大多数人来说，大脑中有一种编程促使人们接受病毒是强大的。这种程序化导致了对微生物的内脏情感反应。
The collection of sensations would be something like:riding on a train heading toward a possible break in the tracks.Each person on board has been warned.No one is sure whether the tracks,a few miles in the distance,have actually been ripped apart.The train's engineer in the cab isn't stopping.
这些感觉的集合就像是:坐在一辆驶向可能会出现轨道断裂的火车上。船上的每个人都收到了警告。没有人确定几英里外的铁轨是否真的被撕裂了。驾驶室里的火车司机没有停下来。
There is fear,of course.But there is also something else.An almost wild feeling.Where does it comes from?It comes from the realization that power is SOMEWHERE.Where?In the potential break in the tracks.
当然，还有恐惧。但是还有一些其他的东西。一种近乎狂野的感觉。它从何而来？它来自于这样一种认识:力量就在某个地方。在哪里？在潜在的轨道断裂中。
People don't often experience a sensation of power.For that reason,they don't want to minimize the importance of the tracks up ahead.They don't want to throw away that feeling.At some level,they believe that,if they do throw it away,there will be no power anywhere.And THAT would provoke panic.
人们通常不会体验到权力的感觉。出于这个原因，他们不想低估前方轨道的重要性。他们不想抛弃那种感觉。在某种程度上，他们相信，如果他们真的把它扔掉，那么任何地方都不会有电力供应。这会引起恐慌。
The idea that they might be coddling an ILLUSION—and the whole warning they received was a monstrous fabrication to begin with—well,this prospect is entirely out of the question.That couldn't be,under any circumstances.That would be too,too much.
他们可能是在纵容一种错觉ーー他们收到的整个警告从一开始就是一种荒谬的捏造ーー好吧，这种前景是完全不可能的。在任何情况下都不可能。那就太过分了。
If you were so foolish as to approach such a person and suggest he could,first and foremost,look to his OWN power,he would stare at you as if you were speaking a language from another planet.To say that your advice,under the circumstances—the speeding train,the tracks,the warning—was inappropriate…this would be a vast understatement.
如果你如此愚蠢地接近这样一个人，并建议他可以，首先也是最重要的，看看他自己的力量，他会盯着你，仿佛你在说一种来自另一个星球的语言。如果说你的建议在这种情况下ーー在高速行驶的火车、铁轨、警告ーー是不恰当的......这将是一个极其保守的说法。
If a person,for whatever reason,believes he has no significant power,he searches for it elsewhere.If he can find a train,a warning,and danger,he'll climb onboard.It's far,far better than nothing.
如果一个人，不管出于什么原因，认为自己没有重要的权力，他就会到其他地方去寻找。如果他能找到火车、警告和危险，他就会爬上车。总比什么都没有好。
In our society and present culture,of course,the thought that the individual has a great deal of inherent power,and a right to it,is on the wane.That ship,to go to another metaphor,is taking on lots and lots of water.
当然，在我们的社会和当今文化中，认为个人拥有巨大的固有权力和权利的思想正在衰落。那艘船，用另一个比喻来说，正在承受大量的水。
Typical sociopaths in high places,and their bootlickers,apply basic psychology they don't teach in fifty-thousand-dollars-a-year colleges:People must be able to imagine power is SOMEWHERE.They don't believe they have it themselves.So why not invoke images of power in a venue which results in a strange allegiance:
典型的高层反社会者和他们的马屁精们，应用他们在年薪五万美元的大学里没有教过的基本心理学:人们必须能够想象权力就在某个地方。他们不相信他们自己拥有它。那么，为什么不在一个场所展现权力的形象，从而导致一种奇怪的忠诚:
"I'll see and feel power in a fearful threat to me.I'll sign on and remain loyal,no matter what.I'll cling to my threat,and I'll feel rising fear and strange rising joy together."
"我将看到并感受到对我的可怕威胁的力量。无论如何，我都会签约并保持忠诚。我会紧紧抓住我的威胁不放，我会感到越来越大的恐惧和越来越奇怪的快乐。"
That's the speeding train,the warning,the tracks.
那是高速行驶的火车，警告，铁轨。
That's the virus.
这就是病毒。
