The only ones dumb enough to fall for this bullshit are the ones who absolutely will, and are not gonna be swayed by any articles, no matter how well written or well reasoned.
Was going to comment something similar. Good message... but people voting for Biden aren't the ones who need to hear it. How can we even share this message with the right? How to convince people completely divorced from reality to listen to reality?
If you're actually asking how to reach people about a delusional belief they hold it seems often if you try to show them evidence that directly contradicts their belief, argue reasonably, etc they will often become more entrenched in a defiant 'you can't teach me anything' stance to protect their perceived self identity from unwarranted attacks. You have to demonstrate the warrant first.
A possibly more effective method seems to be temporarily accepting their proposed perspective, and asking skeptical questions to reduce their confidence in the delusion. Providing the questions to work it out themselves instead of forcing the conclusion. I haven't read it yet but I've seen https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combating_Cult_Mind_Control recommended as a study on cults and breaking their indoctrination & control tactics but I'm open to more contemporary recommendations if anyone has them.
You don't. Their minds are closed.
There are a huge mass of people who don't normally vote who are much easier to sway.
