OK, you acknowledge that what you are doing is suspension of disbelief and stop trying to impose it as fact in public discourse.

It sould be a bit like saying to a religious (monotheistic) person: "OK, you admit God doesn't exist, and we'll stop ridiculing and demolishing your myths". It's not really going to work because you're still insisting that they admit you're right and they're just being silly.
