Just leave the door open to redemption, to those willing to make a real effort to earn it, and be patient.
Very patient. This will take time.

Eventually, a lot of them are going to start noticing how much of what is beautiful in life they are missing, because of that Hate. That thought might nag at them for years, slowly opening those closed minds of theirs.

Those who've already been fooled are going to be harder to reach. Maybe the best we can do is give them their space (as long as they do the same for others), and go on living life happily with all of our friends, including the ones that Nazis and White supremacists would have us hate.

Having done so, one can then show others how these evil people make crazy things sound reasonable to those who've let their guard down.
We deal with the Hate peddlers by getting to the people they're going to try to recruit, first, and exposing the scam.

One thing that can be done and has been done, is to listen in on the Hate, and study the way in which the people pushing it will subtly twist logic in a way to make themselves sound more reasonable than they are.

Hi, Katie. I've been listening in. I've spent a fair amount of time trying to do exactly that, reach people who were taken in by hateful propaganda, and to date, I've had no success in that. I don't know anybody who has. But all is not lost.
