You are failing because you assume that when given the facts they they would agree with you. For the most part they know the facts and choose deliberately to act in the way they have.
Imagine what your decisions would look like if you chose to actively punish people you disagreed with.
You see someone running by the pool and say,” don’t run you could slip and fall.”
Solution one: post a sign and install slip resistant coating, making it harder to fall, but still possible.
Solution two: see the person running and deliberately trip them so they fall, rending your warning correct.
They have such vastly different motivations and priorities from you that you can’t understand how they could know the truth and act like they do.
