    I don’t think this will help much, even if the outcome is what most think it will be. There are already lots of radicalized people within the right-wing fascist bubble who will not believe anything that scientists, doctors, journalists, intellectuals, or people from a different political spectrum say. They only believe what their own bubble and their own media/leaders say. They are unfortunately already so far removed from any sort of objective fact-based reality that re-education will take a long time (maybe for the rest of their lives) and will not happen in time for the current elections in USA. Also, their rhetoric has already become quite 1930s Nazi-like. They are already using various dehumanizing or demonizing terms for their perceived “enemies”, like vermin or low-lifes. It will probably become worse over time, and since the rhetoric is already bad, it’s likely that violence will be the next step for them.
