If two people have a persistent disagreement of fact, eventually the inescapable conclusion is that they do not fully trust one another for rationalists. Exploring how this came to be the case is the first step to changing the situation.
I think ideally what we need is a space in which we can suggest flaws in a person's personality, and still be friends the next day. Is that possible?
Discussions among rationalists needn't involve differences of opinion; they can instead involve differences of personal impression. That said, there are real differences of opinion among rationalists. I'm not sure, however, that we need to resort to psychoanalysis to resolve them -- after all, argument screens off personality.
