It might be better if you're less dramatic and don't generalize as much - there's a whole spectrum of people who are pro-Bitcoin / "army of HODLers" members: from less reasonable, who are less of critical thinkers - more gullible - to those who are critical thinkers and understand Bitcoin et al is just gambling and they're riding it for as much as they can - happy to be greedy and taking advantage of others.
I wrote a reply recently to an article posted here by someone pro-Bitcoin - an "early adopter" as they call themselves - who has more critical thinking, however they've been indoctrinated into and must have ignored looking into or trying to understand the pitfalls in order to remain indoctrinated, and to which their own bias of being financially incentivized into seeing the positive in Bitcoin has allowed them to be misguided; https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25551114 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25551114 - you'll probably be aligned with what I say.
TL;DR - It's not helpful to use inflammatory language like "[all] Bitcoiners today are extremely gullible."
