Try appealing to their egoism. Don’t say that the ones that have nothing must be helped. Tell them that if they lose everything, society will help them. Let’s say they have a farm. If a year the crops don’t give enough or the animals get sick, they’ll be helped by society.

Our healthcare system is the most expensive per person in taxes in the world but we get nothing from it if we switched to universal healthcare we would likely end up saving money in taxes
Use all of the things that conservatives say they value and point out how right wing ideas do not actually uphold these values
Small government
Ice agents rounding everyone up isn’t very small government now is it? Its also very expensive
The constitution
Point out how our constitutional rights are being taken away from us right now
Freedom
Is it really freedom to be controlled by corporations?
Meritocracy
Point out how the game is rigged in favor of the rich
Patriotism
Is it really patriotic to be in favor of laws that hurt your fellow Americans?
