Once its crimethink to entertain a certain position, the cost of defending such position must be balanced with cost of just accepting this position and moving on. I don't think you can change cultural values and entire political climate with just facts and logic. Its a naive reductionism to assume "right ideas always win". Most people don't 'believe' in that, they have ideas, beliefs and emotions. Facts and logic come second to rationalize the above.
