Do you have any area& #39;s of thought where you have an abstract principle in conflict with some pragmatic circumstance?

For example:

Pro democracy, but don& #39;t like the way the people vote.
Anti-polarization, but really dislike one side atm
Anti-moderation, but want to win election
One thing I think about:

There& #39;s some good modeling of social science that suggests more cooperative societies tend to do much better.

Sounds good, right? Nasty implication, if true, is a sort of might makes right world, where the conquered should& #39;ve cooperated better.
