In Holland, Belgium and Germany, Hardcore dance music genres such as Gabba are often associated with far-right politics.

"...thought politics were..."

It was the first time a country went so far to the left, politics were almost completely far-right up to that point and people tend not to like their opposites.

Centrist refers to ones placement on the scale of left to right of politics and is ofeten interchanged with moderate.However moderate is more acurate in reflecting the depth of ones (in terms of politics) agreement in the party line.Eg a moderate conservative may agree with the economics of the right but not be a party to the far right's social views.
