What are some alternatives to explaining the truth to conservatives who already know but lie about everything?
Effective ones?

Why bother? There really is only one way to do it and that is to befriend them. That is, make them see you as a real person instead of simply the other. Then you can start to try to understand why each individual feels and behaves as they do, and then you can try to persuade them to change.
Personally I'm to lazy and too shy to do such things but I have read of examples where something like it has worked (for some value of worked), for instance: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4055162/Killing-hatred-kindness-Black-man-convinced-200-racists-abandon-KKK-making-friends-despite-prejudiced-views.html

@ninalanyon they already see me as mom, sister, classmate, boss, teacher friend, partner and co worker. Maybe I influenced a person, but I've never backed down and I see no evidence that I've been heard.
