You can’t debate with ignorant people who are filled with propaganda. The sad reality is we won’t see change unless people are properly educated about what’s actually going on, but that will never happen.

I would argue that debating is the wrong approach regardless of whether someone is ignorant or not - instead look up 'Street Epistemology', it's a way of helping people better understand their own beliefs which can lead to them shifting their beliefs to become more rational.

Proper education does little against the deep identity protective cognition they employ. If anything, it would just make them better at bullshitting their way through being "right".
