In this particular case, the answer was to - quite literally - turn off the TV.
I don't imagine this is a good option for many, but shutting off the incoming flow of hate can make a difference.
"You are what you eat". If someone only consumes ~~fascist propaganda~~ right-wing media, then they will become more ~~fascist~~ right-winged.
To OOP: You might not be able to turn off their TV. But you should share unbiased or left-leaning articles, shows, news, etc. And try to get them to "eat" a more balanced diet.
