A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth gets its boots on. The internet accelerates lies at least as much as the truth.
I don't think the problem is education, it's a lack of strong shared commitments. It doesn't matter how clearly you explain something if the other party isn't interested in understanding it. I don't think that problem will be solved as long as all factions are more focused on defeating each other at all costs.
