    Will you stop confusing centerists with far right please Rich! We all know that the only reason you confuse us with that lie is because of how far left you are.

    Btw can you point out where Luxon is mentioned in your stupid cite...

    Sadly you are deluded.
    There is no far right in National or ACT. To compare them with the Republican Party is beyond lunacy.

    Equally lunatic is the notion that Rich knows what diseases some
    National/ACT supporters have.

    All this talk of "far right" and "far left" is as idiotic as the
    so-called political compass; the purpose of which seems only to
    confuse people.

    The only index that makes any kind of sense is a very long line that
    puts liberty at one end and tyranny at the other.

    Cappiche?

    There the Political Compass can help you: https://www.politicalcompass.org/nz2020

    For liberty you have the Green Party and ACT (both great believers in
    Freedom of Speech for example, and at the Authoritarian end NZ First
    and National. Labour is less authoritarian but more libertarian than
    National.

    On the economic front however National and ACT are far-right; Labour
    is not as extreme right, and The Green Party is left of centre.

    for comparison, see the similar chart for the USA Presidential
    candidates in 2020 - Trump is to the right of the National Party,
    Biden to the right of Labour and about the same as National - with
    both Biden and Trump not being at all libertarian.

    I suspect tyranny can exist at either the far right or far left
    extreme authoritarianism - it is ironic that the US regards itself as
    embracing Liberty when they have such authoritarian structures . . .

    Nothing to do with the US, which country do you live in. In fact are you actually a human being or an AI bot?

    It can't even help you not look like a feral and demented fool Rich!

    The Green party doesn't believe in freedom of speech! Like you Rich, they only believe people should talk about what the government approves of!
    Labour is authoritarian and the mandates prove that!


    On the economic front however National and ACT are far-right; Labour
    is not as extreme right, and The Green Party is left of centre.

    Labour never is right in any stretch of the imagination! No Marxist party is! National is centre with a slight lean to the left.

    Economy is is doing will or it is not. Big conclusion as to how it gets to
    be left or right. It is the actions of the party/Government which make it
    left or right.

    Liberty is what we call freedom and less Government. Of course in a society neither can be asolute. Thus freedom of speech is needed so that society can sort out the acceptable areas

    Not the Democrats are not embracing liberty. (Off topic, sorry)
