So the challenge becomes how do we change the paradigm so they believe that the discourse is being conducted by an equal or superior.

Unfortunately that's how it is going to end. We live in two separate realities and people don't take well to the whole, "your entire worldview is fundamentally flawed" truth. If they come to it on their own, sometimes they can come to terms with the fact that they've been lied to their entire life. But they will vehemently oppose anyone from the outgroup trying to lead them to that realization.

Again, it's tribal nature. My tribe good no matter what. Education, which ideally teaches thinking skills should let people overcome this, but education doesn't teach people to think anymore. It's been subverted into "repeat the lines you've been told," which only further fuels tribalism.

Unfortunately there really isn't any other way. We live in two separate realities and people don't take well to the whole, "your entire worldview is fundamentally flawed" truth.
