Whatever happens after the #transitionperiod ends, we can foresee that one or both “sides” will double down on their initial beliefs - as found in the #LeonFestinger 1956 study of the Seekers.

Although, it’s important to note the #Festinger study also found some people looked at the information afresh, when new information became available. Seems the best approach to take.
