Learn, for example: how to play the 'biological reductionist' card to maximum effect; how 'language games' can help you out of a sticky situation; and how lucky it is that 'truth' is relative to particular discourses (especially yours).

They were always 'good' at attacking immigrants, and now their arguments are better than ever. We have elections this year, and for the first time in decades the political landscape is divided in a right and a left fraction.

Today they are more to the right than the Center party--who've moved to the left because of the EU resistance, and is in a govt. coalition with the Right and the Christian democrats.

Norwegian politics :crazy:
