I don't know how to convince anyone otherwise, when they're so entrenched in this worldview that their suffering means everyone else must suffer equally to be real.
You can't. The philosophy has crafted itself so it can't be disproved; in fact, the very act of TRYING to disprove it only proves the person trying to be recategorized as fake or malicious themselves.
Hopefully they grow out of it eventually and figure it out for themselves. If not... well, they won't find much company, and it will probably not be happy, since it relies entirely on mutual suffering, insuring that one can never stop, lest they lose their identity.
