We have a engineered virus, engineered brainwashing, in order to engineer an election. Been fighting engineered enemies for decades. Now they seem to be engineering the damn weather as well. Yeah its a fucking lot to take in guys! It's easier to lie to someone than to convince them they've been lied to. Slowly, they will come around. Drip drip.

It is no small feat to get a person, even for a moment and to themselves, to admit they are a fool. The delay in getting there is caused by intellectual vanity and some will only make the jump if you allow them to keep their dignity about it - this often takes form in some left field question about a topic that was considered ridiculous or reprehensible not long ago.
The hardest hurdle to overcome in my experience is reaching people who have lost the ability to spot loaded statements and worse yet, have come to accept that loaded statement as a form of truth that must be protected or considered morally unfathomable to think otherwise. It cynically exploits their better natures normally to trojan horse in a terrible thing.
Black Lives Matter is the perfect example. Stick the words I don't agree with / I don't like / I don't support in front of it and you get the idea. You might get to have a discussion about the principles of the movement and why it has been terrible so long as you survive the cavity inspection to make sure there isn't a shred of racism in you first.
