I'm of the opinion that going after the places these people are known to congregate is a bad idea. It pushes them underground, and strengthens their bubble more than even Youtube's or Facebook's algorithms can accomplish. I agree that there is a problem here, but I don't think isolating them more is the solution. My friend's wife went off the rails on the flat earth conspiracy. Thankfully, it's mostly benign as far as conspiracies go. She got in with a certain crowd and started cutting ties with those that gave her grief about it, or that she thought might. She knew the truth, the government was covering it up, etc. It was only through the actions of her husband, patiently bringing up questions and referring to science and hearing her out over a long period of time, that she came clean that she had finally come to the conclusion that she was wrong. The quote about "sunlight being the best disinfectant" has some truth to it.
