I don’t think that calling someone a pedophile is any more convincing than calling them a nazi. If anything, that’ll just make them dig their heels deeper.
I don’t think it’s that they don’t listen to anyone. People generally are open to hear different views as long as it’s done in good faith rather that in the form of accusations. Nobody wants to hear from someone who openly treats them as second class citizens. If you treat them with dignity and are open to hear their views as well you’re far more likely to get them to reflect on their own views too. Daryl Davis is a good example of this.
If we want to win over Republican voters we need to appeal to their sensibilities.
They have no sensibilities if they voted for Trump.

Ok but what if they are a pedophile and/or a fascist?
Well I mean you can go around calling them fascists all you want. That already got you Trump twice but maybe 3rd time is the charm.
All the evidence points to them being both a nazi & pedophile.
But pedophiles are something they’re preprogrammed to hate.
Do you think they’re going to accept that he is one when the accusation is coming from someone on the left? I doubt it.
That’s valid. But if they won’t listen to us, what hope do we have if fixing this
