哗众取宠？萨县酒厂FB搞活动，竟使用“中国病毒”词语！
Placer County brewery apologizes but denies racist intent in ‘Chinese Virus’ special
Placer County brewery道歉，但否认在“中国病毒”中有种族主义意图
A Sacramento area brewery created a controversy by using the term “Chinese Virus” in reference to the coronavirus earlier this week.
本周早些时候，萨克拉门托地区的一家酿酒厂使用“中国病毒”来指代冠状病毒，这引起了争议。
A Placer County brewery owner apologized for “ignorance” Wednesday night but denied racist intent after a Facebook post some called anti-Asian.
周三晚，Placer县的一名酿酒厂老板为自己的“无知”道歉，但否认自己有种族歧视意图。此前，他在Facebook上发布了一篇被称为“反亚裔”的帖子。
In a post on Hillenbrand Farmhaus Brewery’s Facebook page, owner Patric Hillenbrand called an ongoing gift card deal — a complimentary 32-ounce crowler with purchase of a $50 or $100 card — the “Chinese Virus Special.” He later edited the post to refer to the “Donald Trump Special,” then “Christmas special” before deleting the brewery’s Facebook page and deactivating comments on its Instagram page.
在Hillenbrand Farmhaus Brewery的Facebook页面上的一篇文章中，所有者帕特里克·希伦布兰德(Patric Hillenbrand)将一项正在进行的礼品卡交易称为“中国病毒特惠”——购买50美元或100美元的礼品卡，赠送32盎司的crowler。他后来编辑了帖子，提到了“唐纳德·特朗普特辑”和“圣诞特辑”，然后删除了这家酿酒厂的Facebook页面，并关闭了Instagram页面上的评论。
The original deal referred to the novel coronavirus, which is believed to have originated in Wuhan, China, and has killed more than 1.6 million people worldwide, including more than 300,000 Americans. President Donald Trump, Fox News hosts and other notable conservatives have frequently referred to it as the “Chinese Virus” despite World Health Organization advising against naming infectious diseases by place of origin, since doing so has produced xenophobic reactions in the past.
最初的协议指的是新型冠状病毒，这种病毒据信起源于中国武汉，已经导致全球160多万人死亡，其中包括30多万美国人。美国总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)、福克斯新闻(Fox News)主持人和其他著名的保守派人士经常将其称为“中国病毒”，尽管世界卫生组织(World Health Organization)建议不要按传染病的来源地命名，因为这样做在过去曾引起排外反应。
Reports of racism against Asian Americans have surged since the beginning of the year, with a quarter of Asian American young adults reporting themselves the target of racist abuse, according to a Stop AAPI Hate Campaign study published in September.
今年9月发表的Stop AAPI仇恨运动研究报告显示，自今年年初以来，针对亚裔美国人的种族歧视报告激增，四分之一的亚裔美国年轻人称自己是种族主义虐待的目标。
In an Instagram post Wednesday night, Hillenbrand apologized for pain caused but denied he intended the Facebook post to be anti-Asian.
周三晚上，希伦布兰德在Instagram上为自己造成的痛苦道歉，但他否认自己有意在Facebook上发布这篇帖子是反亚裔的。
“Let me start by saying that it was painful for me to hear from you that our social media posts were hurtful to the Asian community. I regret that very much,” Hillenbrand said in an Instagram post Wednesday night. “What was more painful to hear is that I am racist or xenophobic, or that I mocked Asian people.”
“首先我要说的是，听到你们说我们在社交媒体上的帖子伤害了亚洲社区，我感到很痛苦。我对此非常后悔，”希伦布兰德周三晚上在Instagram上说。“更让人痛苦的是，有人说我是种族主义者或仇外者，或者说我嘲笑亚洲人。”

Hillenbrand pointed to the hundreds of thousands of dollars he and the brewery have raised to support anti-human trafficking organizations, as well as time spent volunteering in Cambodia.
希伦布兰德指出，他和酿酒厂已经筹集了数十万美元，用于支持反人口贩运组织，以及在柬埔寨做志愿者的时间。
“It is fair to say that my comment was ignorant, but extremely unfair to say it is racist,” Hillenbrand wrote in the Instagram post. “Racism should be measured by more than a poorly worded social post. Racism is not words. It is thoughts and beliefs. Against the accusation of racism, my actions speak louder than words. I will offer my sincere apology to the Asian community for my ignorance, but I will neither dignify nor validate the accusations of racism with anything more.”
希伦布兰德在Instagram帖子中写道:“说我的评论无知是公平的，但说它是种族主义是极其不公平的。”“种族主义的衡量标准不应该仅仅是一个措辞糟糕的社交帖子。种族主义不是语言。它是思想和信仰。面对种族主义的指控，我的行动比言语更有说服力。我将为我的无知向亚洲社区表示真诚的道歉，但我不会再用任何东西来美化或证实种族主义的指控。”
Hillenbrand opened his 13-acre Newcastle brewery in the Sierra Nevada foothills in 2016. He previously founded and sold Hillenbrand Insurance Solutions, and served as president and regional director of Entrepreneurs’ Organization’s Sacramento chapter.
2016年，希伦布兰德在内华达山麓开设了占地13英亩的纽卡斯尔啤酒厂。此前，他创立并出售Hillenbrand Insurance Solutions，并担任企业家组织萨克拉门托分会的总裁和区域总监。
