I hit post prematurely - so here's the rest.
The other way great divisions are dealt with is: thesis, antithesis, synthesis - a philosophical idea.
We've seen this work in some areas such as light being treated both as a particle and a wave. I believe this is also possible in the political sphere.
One thing I note is that some things that appear to be fundamental aren't. The right used to be all in favor of local control rather than being dictated to by the Federal Government. Now the right is all in favor of Presidential power and the necessity of state and local governments following the dictates of the President.
Thus some of the apparent stances are really about power - we want our person to have control is the really important point, not where the power is located (centrally or locally).
And here, from another perspective, our California governor decided that counties were better able to manage some COVID restrictions than the central State government.
