That might be the case since almost 20 percent of Norwegians vote communist, though they are truly more radical socialists. In fact, the current labor party government is dependent on SV, a communist party, to pass its legislation. The government has been a flop since day one, and will be voted out in the next national election in 2025.
Big deal! The government is ALWAYS voted out in the next national election. This is a natural law in a democracy where moderate centrists are always unhappy with the current politics, no matter who makes it.
George Carlin was a comedian, and a bit of a one trick pony so I’m not sure I’d use him as a reference for political definition. In your post above you make a distinction between communists and radical socialists, but you’re insisting that democratic socialists are the same as communists? I think that’s a significant contradiction.
All of that aside, why does working with another party to pass legislation make the Labour Party a flop?
Well, 'democratic socialists' is a contradiction in terms. Working with SV, or with Rødt for that matter, sends about the worst signals possible to the rest of the world, and one of several reasons the Norwegian krone is now a junk currency.
This is true! I just found a communist propaganda group poster in Oslo yesterday! 🤯😱

SV are not communist, they are democratic socialist.
They are communist and they admit it. 'Democratic socialist' is just a euphemism, and as George Carlin once said, soft words.
