Today we must process information faster and faster and we leave the emotional brain to process information, and the emotional brain takes what it likes and discard any additional information.
If someone is primed to think that USA is behind any conspiracy in the world it is difficult for him to reject the false claims that the landing on the Moon was a fake.
It is hard to change someone's wrong ideas,but at least you can discourage him to spread the falsehoods, by making him doubtful.
After all nobody want to be considered a fool.
Let's imagine that you are on a TV studio, and you are trying to convince someone who believes that Moon landing was a fake, that he is actually wrong.
You can try to explain how the Saturn 5 rockets engine worked, or principles of optics on ancient film camera's, but even if you convince a technically ignorant person of your truth, it will take more than 5 min.
In Japanese sword fighting it is an school Iaido which is focusing on drawing the sword and cutting the oponent. The duel in this case takes seconds and the weaker opponent is dead.
The Iaido school focuses in simple fast techniques focused to hit vital organs, using the openings in defense.
We must develop a similar technique with fake news, to not let them spread.
In the case of fake Moon landing what is the vital organ, the hearth of the fake news?
Conspiracy. The US government has spend millions of dollars, for a Moon landing show.
So we must hit the conspiracy. And we must add to this conspiracy someone who is unlike to be a conspirator: the Soviet Union the archenemy of US in Cold War.
If the Moon landing was a fake why the Soviet Union kept silent? After all they could intercept rockets telemetry, and also they have high ranking moles as John Walker,Hansen and Aldrich Ames?
Knowing were to hit is not enough you must also have the sword and the technique.
The sword it is an undisputed truth. The rivalry between USA and URSS is well known.
The technique consists of presenting the information in a way that is not rejected by the defense mechanisms of the other person.
If you say: "The whole thing with Moon landing fake is paranoia fueled by Russia", the other person will refuse to listen to you, because you making him looking like a fool, tricked by propaganda.
But if you put the misinformed person in role playing situation, maybe he will analyzing his believes.
Putting him in the role of URSS leader. he may wonder, if an ordinary man like me knows that the Moon landing was a fake, why the leaders from Kremlin, didn't know or didn't do anything.
In wining a dispute first you must have truth of your side, and you must be informed and know life sciences such as physics, well.
Second you must conceive simple fast experiments that can test the truth.
If someone is telling you about the car propelled by water. Ask him to ignite water. A fuel burns, if the water is fuel then it will burn.
Third you must know what truth's you can use.
Knowing how a camera works doesn't help in convincing someone who is ignorant about physics.
But everybody knows that enemies don't help each other, and was no reason for Soviet Union to cover USA in the biggest lie of the century.
