I've been right there with you dude. When they said I was going to "blow up" my knees, I simply asked them to show me the scientific evidence and stated "Exactly" as they would be caught speechless just saying "uhmmm."
I was fortunate to have a professor who used to powerlift and wanted to get into olympic lifting, also helped he was an anatomy/physiology professor who supported ATG squatting. Just keep doing what you're doing and don't let them get to you.
