I think these divisions is half the reason we have a "shidduch crisis"
My husband classifies as litvishe charedi, mildly anti-zionist (certainly anti-government) but works and watches movies...
I classify as conservadox, Zionist.
yet... the friend who set us up decided "Shomer Kashrut and Shabbat and they both juggle - it'll probably work." 4 years in, and so far, so good. It gives us what to fight over ;)
Because this post is lacking substance, enjoy this irrelevant extra:

With apologies to Emo Phillips:
I was walking across a bridge one day, and I saw a man standing on the edge, about to jump off. So I ran over and said "Stop! don't do it!" "Why shouldn't I?" he said. I said, "Well, there's so much to live for!" He said, "Like what?" I said, "Well...are you religious or atheist?" He said, "Religious." I said, "Me too! Are you Jewish or Christian?" He said, "Jewish." I said, "Me too! Are you Orthodox or Heterodox?" He said, "Orthodox." I said, "Me too! Are you charedi or MO?" He said, "Charedi!" I said,"Wow! Me too! Are you yeshivish or chassidic?" He said, "Chassidic" I said, "Me too! Are you Satmar or Bobov?" He said,"Satmar!" I said, "Me too! Do you follow Rav Zalman or Rav Aaron" He said, "Rav Aaaron!" I said, "Die, heretic scum", and pushed him off the bridge.
