Most people get defensive when you go after their beliefs, but try going after their reasons for why they believe something, people won’t be as defensive. Some good examples of how to do this are on YouTube, look for street epistemology. I follow someone named Anthony Magnabosco most of his videos center around religious beliefs but you can apply this to just about any belief. It’s not 100% fool proof but it’s helped me tremendously when talking to people with wild beliefs.
Way back when I was in high school in the 90s, a friend made a custom wad file for doom that was the exact layout of our school. Of course this was pre Columbine.
