^THIS. My daughter, who is completely red-pilled, spent several days with my liberal son and dIL over Christmas. She tried to have a mild conversation by refuting quite a few things they believe with actual facts. My son (who has a PhD in a science field) got so upset he almost started crying. I told her it was the conflict of his science background that is supposed to be backed up by data crashing into his brainwashed beliefs that aren't factual. He had to concede she was right on several points and this sent him over the edge.
That guy is my son. You can bet there was a civil war in our family when he said he wanted to marry her. It caused so much division that his father and I were treated like crap at the wedding by her and her entire family. I did everything I could to stop him from marrying her, but free will is a thing, and he made his choice. I'm convinced if he only stayed in college long enough to get his bachelor's in engineering he would have made it out unscathed. A PhD requires many years in the brainwashing system. We fight to this day to get his mind back.
Best of luck in your effort friend. As an academic myself I can say that most of these academic types are very insecure people. You basically learn in your phd that the only thing that is truth is what your peers agree upon..... You know because they're the smartest people 🙄
Try a different angle man. Take him hunting or something that encourages his individuality - get him out of the circle jerk world he's in. You can experience freedom outside of politics.
I wish. When he got married ha handed my husband back every fishing pole and gun we ever bought him. His wife convinced him that part of his life was over. Was hoping he would have a son to bring those hobbies back, but he has two girls now. We will keep trying all angles we can. If the world keeps heating up our family will be ready to push through difficult times, they may look to us then

And you stood in the aisle and said "her mother and I" to the science guy who cries?

Some scientists believe the stupidest things. http://phzoe.com/2020/03/04/dumbest-math-theory-ever/
