Awesome!
I have not tried to orange pill either of my parents. They're both so technophobic that it would be completely pointless.
When bitcoin or crypto have come up, I have given really short simple explanations of why bitcoin is so valuable and everything else is some BS scam crap (to channel Darth).

I understand you perfectly, but believe me when I tell you that the key is to insist, insist, and insist until you get them to pay attention.
My mother is clear proof, and believe me, if there is someone who is bad at moving around with aspects of technology, that is my mother.
But although technology seems difficult to her, she quickly understood the monetary part that bitcoin tries to solve and how the state deceives us and steals from us all through fiduciary money. And be careful ๐ she didn't understand it the first time either, it has been a long and constant work just to get her to the point of awakening curiosity and allowing an open position to listen and learn.
If your parents still don't take the orange pill ๐งก๐ don't give up, it's just a matter of insisting more, and in the end they are the only ones with whom it is worth spending our lives teaching them and trying to make them understand.
