I think most of us will feel this way about most people, after we’ve grown up.
It’s odd that I cannot bring myself to feel this way about my own parents now.
Sometimes I try to. But I know that their present lack of knowledge or interest in cryonics is a result of their own choices, and their own vices, vices that are going to kill not just them but many other people who trusted them. I know that if I bring it up they will not be grateful. They will say something pigheaded and fearful, “do not give me the hope”. They seem not to want it. I believe, abstractly, that there must be more to them, an inner world, unique, but I cannot see it, it never comes to the fore.

There are a lot of people like this.
How can I want to save these people?
Still, you can try to pursuade them so you do not feel remorse after.
