Most of the history described in your own link makes it clear that scientists objected because they think cryonics is scientifically nonsense, not because of race, religion, or politics. The article then tacks on a claim that scientists reject it for ethical reasons, but that isn’t supported by its own history, just by a few quotes with no evidence that these beliefs are prevalent among anyone other than the people quoted.
Furthermore, of the quotes it does give, one of them is vague enough that I have no idea if it means in context what the article claims it means. Saying that the “end result” is damaging doesn’t necessarily mean that having unfrozen people walking around is damaging—it may mean that he thinks cryonics doesn’t work and that having a lot of resources wasted on freezing corpses is damaging.
