Agreed, left and right politics are a lot more centre leaning here in NZ than in other countries (it seems) and I like that about it. Either extreme is bad for any society because they tend to get a lot alike the further away they get from each other. The fact is that it's becoming harder and harder avoid overseas influences though and more extreme narratives pop up all the time, on both sides. I hope we manage to stay away from extremism for as long as possible.
