  Conspiracies can only be debunked by showing the believers facts that impose them. Facts, not arguments.

  That makes it hard in some cases because they might be so far gone that you have to prove that simple statistical math operations are not dreamt up.

  Anyways, the easy things we can do we should do to change their minds.

  Example: in Germany we have glas recycling and it is sorted by green, white and brown in three different containers on the side of the street. When the truck comes it picks up each container and dumps it into the back by holding it with a crane over the trailer. Some person without any imagination thought recycling must be a lie because they dump it all in the same truck. It never occured to him that there are compartments on the trailer. But now he is a gonner, he saw the light and everything he always suspected becomes true as well. Drag that idiot on the ladder of the trailer and show them.

      It isn’t easy but it’s a start. What’s the alternative?
