How to confront right wing attitutes (lemmy.ml)

So there is this guy at my college (UK) and he is a monarchist and definitely right wing and the topic of Daunte Wright's Murder came up in conversation and he was excusing the cops actions, which is just disgusting. He was saying that down to nerves the cop didn't realise it was a gun and also brought up that Daunte had a warrant on him, which I have not heard of.

So the guy is a **** and burden on society (makes racist, homophobic, transphobic jokes) and at the time I wanted to prove him wrong and educate his ass but I didn't know how, so how can I deal with a situation like this?
