You're spot on Minuteman, that's the way the system works. Once one side does too much damage the pendulum swings the other way. The key to note is that the other side rarely "undoes" the damage the other side has done, they just inflect their own agenda with new damage, and so the cycle goes.

How do you sail a boat upwind? Same as you sell a population into slavery, a little to the left then a little to the right, the back again and so on.
