I mostly know whether people will react negatively but from a more 'logical' thinking. I don't pass judgement on who they 'are', a big question, though. I just accept that they often have their hopes, fears, and illusions which they cling to, and which, to a large extent, control them. The best thing to realize is that we can control our own conditioned-reflexes through practising awareness, and so doing arrive at an exhilarating sense of Suchness. You are it. I am it. The path of suffering need not enslave us. Our sense of other people 'making' us suffer is an illusion. As is our sense of other people/objects making us truly content or happy. You are it. I am it. Even the fear of Death passes away when you realize this in yourself. A bit of dirt has collected on my keyboard.
