Best I can tell, it’s not so much what you believe that matters here as what you say and do
I agree with the rest of your comment, but this seems very wrong to me. I’d say rather that the unity we (should) look for on LW is usually more meta-level than object-level, more about pursuing correct processes of changing belief than about holding the right conclusions. Object-level understanding, if not agreement, will usually emerge on its own if the meta-level is in good shape.

Indeed, I agree—I meant that it doesn’t matter what conclusions you hold as much as how you interact with people as you search for them.
