A lot of these people are afraid, and fear shuts down your higher brain functions. A message that things are not bad as they believe, I think will eventually resonate and be a relief, once they come to accept the evidence. But it will be a slooooooow process.

My personal experiences up to now have been nothing gets thru. Not a thing that they can not twist around with no need of logic or facts.
It is like arguing with a drunk. The harder you try to get through the less coherent and more angry they become.
They also see those who are being nice as weak I fear.
For in the end most I know talk big when in groups. Hence the reason they congregate with their flags hats banners and such. I learned a life lesson years ago when a youngster. When it looks as a fight was a possibility. The guy talking $hit, would be easy.
This cult needs to be dealt with out in the open. Exposed and shown for what they are.
