“One of the more positive aspects of our existence in Oceania is that truth is flexible and negotiable, despite attempts by some of us to impose political, religious, and other forms of absolutionism. Versions of truth may be accepted for particular purposes and moments, only to be reversed when circumstances demand other versions; and we often accede to things just to stop being bombarded, and then go ahead and do what we want to do anyway.” WantMayMomentsFormPoliticalPurposeReligiousExistenceParticularCircumstancesTruth IsDemandAspectAcceptedVersionsDespiteFlexibleBombardedBombarded ByOceania Author:Epeli Hau'ofa
