I'm sitting here thanking God for people like you because what you've just described sounds IDEAL.
I firmly believe the best way to resolve all this is not censorship but by shining that light as brightly as possible.
I wonder what a workable version of this looks like?

I have some hazy concepts around it. I suspect very humble inception.
Something like having the other person think they're better than you for having less of their flaws than you do. Sort of a reverse psychology type of thing, but with more potential for doing harm.
To be able to do it, one would have to first heal their ego I think. Be able to look like a jackass and not let it get to their head.

There's a metaphysical "law" that holds that when there's some quality in the other person that ticks you off especially, if you search yourself you'll find that it's a quality you also have, don't like about yourself, and are unaware of.
If you'd like to check our work though, play with proving/disproving the following:
1. All negativity/opposition is inherently hypocritical
2. Negativity/opposition is necessary
3. Your opposition will always focus more on your negative differences than your negative similarities
4. Focusing on similarities is the only way to truly resolve conflict.
