I have found you can get through to many people who have become immersed in doublethink. The trick is have a good memory, command of the facts, and apply gentle but constant pressure. You need to be able to make people remember what people said in the past, the reasons they gave for saying it, and be able to compare that with what they are saying now. The good news is I find this has started to become easier than ever. The shameless government and media lying has got to the point where even disengaged and politically apathetic Americans are skeptical about what they see or hear. What you need to do is remind them of why they were skeptical when their skepticism starts to fade and break down the emotional manipulation they are undergoing. The Iraq War and Covid-19 are very effective in this regard. Things may seem worse than ever (and they might be), but we also have an opportunity we cannot miss.
