It can be very difficult to convince people to stop believing something that’s popular.  You could try explaining to them why it’s fake, and pointing to various reliable sources on the internet that show it’s false.  For example, see if they’ll read a study debunking the conspiracy theory.

I  try that but they still tend to believe the fake news because it aligns with their beliefs.
