It might be hard with tribal identifiers like “I am a patriot” which is meant more to signal sides than its underlying meaning. Would you translate it to be how the other tribe describes the first or swap it to talk about the other?

Or like “socialism is bad, hands off my Medicare” where the person saying it has no idea what they are really describing as bad. A lot of the vocab exists as whistles.

A Rosetta Stone would be fun to see.
