I think it really depends on whose positions you are contemplating. There's more variety among conservatives than we usually notice from our typical distances.

The one thing I would be careful about is how slick some of them are at presenting reasonable-sounding positions that are not actually backed up by facts (or, much too often, empathy or compassion). They're more used to that type of intellectual dishonesty, though sadly some parts of the left seem to be trying hard to catch up. Beware of snake oil.

We could wander off into musing about how much validity there is to scientific attempts to quantify differences between the brains of conservatives and other people, but there's something to be aware of there, as well, particularly as it relates to fear responses and how a person regards authority figures. Don't have time to dig any of that up at the moment.

The world is pretty gray, despite humanity's attempts to simplify it into black and white. I'm hopeful that finding points of agreement constitutes having a bridge which might prove fruitful about other things.
