It could also be mocking. Or self-censorship, because, you know, the poster is asking why the person hasn't died. Voluntary or not, you are right, it's probably a typo.

Well since baidu is just a google clone, it's probably safe to assume the same. that's just one of the names used for that guy, and given that this sentence came from a comment, on a post on Shinzo Abe, I am confident that whoever typed it just used the wrong characters, possibly due to the typing program he is on where gold mountain was the first choice and people on the internet don't really care about name correctness

Abe just won a resounding victory in the elections. Maybe they just meant '安倍金山 why aren't you politically dead yet?' Although, Baidu gives his name as 安倍晋三. Such transliterations are not always fixed. In your link I don't find 安倍金山。 你打错了吗？

安倍晋三 is Shinzo Abe, one of the most hated name among mainland China because of propagation. 金山 jinshan to 晋三 jinsan is just a typo. 金山 (Mountain of Gold) was a nickname for California - San Francisco specifically - for historical reasons. They are not related.

@Blaszard When it comes to hatred it's really hard to tell...... I'll say it's among some Chinese ethnic Taiwanese like Ingwen Tsai or Tenghui Lee, or Rebiya Kadeer, or maybe even HH14. It's a country with almost 1.4 B population. You'll easily find 5-6 people hated the most by 200 Mil respectively, lol.

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-10-23)

In the following sentence, which is from a comment on [this article](http://slide.news.sina.com.cn/w/slide_1_2841_211969.html#p=1):

It might be an Internet slang, but what does the 金山 mean?

According to many dictionaries for Chinese-English (Pleco, [MDBG](https://www.mdbg.net/chinese/dictionary?page=worddict&wdrst=0&wdqtm=0&wdqcham=1&wdqt=%E9%87%91%E5%B1%B1), etc), it only lists the meaning as the place names.

Native speaker here. It could be a typo made unconsciously, or made deliberately to show disrespect to 安倍晋三. Anyway, it's just a typo, with nothing to do with the meaning you found about the word 金山.

By the way, the meaning you found about 金山 is somewhat a Buddhism-related jargon, which is actually rarely used nowadays. For common people 金山 just means "gold mountain" or "rich places with resources".

For example:

> 绿水青山就是**金山银山**。——习近平
>
> Lucid waters and lush mountains are **invaluable assets**. *Xi Jinping*
>
> 其国有**金山**，石皆赤色，其中生金。——《南史》
