I don’t think you read what I wrote, or if you didn’t you ignored my point.
I don’t believe you really can change the opinion of people who believe this shit, over the internet. That’s my entire point. Trying to change the minds of those people is wasted effort. The best you can do is prevent the ideology spreading to people who do not already believe in it, and “oh let’s just hear them out” is the exact opposite of how you do that.
It’s possible to deprogram these people, but only in real life with someone you know. You can never do that for a stranger, it just doesn’t work - there has been research into this, you can search the backfire effect if you’re interested.
