I hear you, Mary, and I definitely get that. It is challenging to try and get people to open their eyes without engaging their defenses, particularly when it comes to the diehard believers …
I"ve succeeded exactly once: with a nurse who is s neighbor. We were having a slightly testy conversation that ranged across the surface. I didn't have hard pcr data at that moment, only could say 40 cycles sounded awfully high to me, so *let* her "win" on her (incorrect) claim that pcr+ meant infectious. She followed up with her "lifetime experience in public health." To which I replied "Then perhaps you could answer a question for me."
Leading her to think I was ready to convert enabled her to drop her defenses. I knew the answer to my question. I also knew the answer would be kneejerk from decades of living it.
"Would that cloth mask of yours protect against measles?"
Long pause...whispers "No."
"Would that cloth mask protect against tb? "No."
"For the record, I've checked the dimensions. The tb mycobacteria is ~500x the size of the sarscov virus. 500x the size.". We parted still friendly. She had been shocked back to consciousness.
I saw her a couple months later. We had a brief convo re: vax side effects. It quickly became clear her critical thinking had stayed awake. She paled at the mention of side effects. I let her know the results of the Salk Inst research, that the spike caused the disease. She picked up on the timing of that announcement -- a month or so before the big push to vax. Asked for repeat of date & location with intent to read it.
Wish I could wake up more, but it's really, really hard to maintain sufficient self-control to not come across as nutcase. It was easier when I knew less, lol.
I have nursing students dining disposable gloves when they come into the classroom to spray down and wipe their desks and chairs before and after class wearing masks. My medical technician vocational school demanded that I wear a mask for online classes I conducted from my own home. One of my medical schools has a multi page list of what we are must and must not do at work, during the commute and at home. I am not to dine with anyone out side my house not converse with my family while eating and we are to dine separately. “Snuggling” is expressly prohibited. Yesterday they sent out the booster schedule for all the med. students, all of whom will unthinkingly get it. I, of course do not follow any of this nonsense, but you really think anyone has a prayer taking sense to such people? That day has passed. That battle was lost. Time to move on. We, the vaxxed, are dead to you. Save the remaining unvaxxed.
Your description gave me chills. That is not only dystopian but psychologically traumatizing. I have so much empathy for the children suffering under this systematically progressive torture.
Mary, wow, that is an impressive feat—brilliant strategy! You have succeeded in the first crucial step toward awakening: sowing the seeds of doubt. See more details on the process in this article by Julius Ruechel:

It takes turning off the defenses.
