Are you / is he inside of Usa? Then good night :-( There it is very hard to find any truth at all. It would be best to leave that country for good.

Three factors that can lead people to believe misinformation are: seeing patterns where none exist, people who strongly trust their intuition/gut reaction, and being ostracized. My advice would be to not belittle their beliefs, try to engage with them and ask how theyve come to believe such things and if there is an opening to tactfully direct them to other information or interpretations of the same information do that.

Its always money. Sounds like youre doing your best, hope he can see eventually whats going on.
As an anecdote, which I wouldnt necessarily recommend following: my father was pretty staunchly against meat substitutes in general. Well it turns out one of his favorite meals, lasgna, my mom had replaced the beef with soy-sub like 10 years ago lol. Dude loves it, she finally got tired of his comments and told him while he had a big mouthful. Hasnt said anything since and now he will eat tofu etc. I dont really endorse deception but it seems to have worked in this case lol
