Yes, really. You've actually been making fun of a straw man this whole time. We're not laughing with you, we're laughing at you. I'm sorry if it took you so long to figure that out.

No, I am definitely making fun of bitcoiners.

Between the conspiracy theorists (which this forum is rife with), the drug and child pornography peddling bitcoin enthusiasts all over the darknet, the delusional true believers who think bitcoin is going to take over the world, the doomsday peppers that believe the world is on the verge of financial/political/social collapse (but believe bitcoin will somehow save them), and the wannabe Gordan Gekkos that think they are "the new wealthy elite",  there is plenty to make fun of.

You can pretend that none of these groups exist, or that they don't make up a large segment of the bitcoin user population, but you are only fooling yourself.  Your community is poisonous, and that is one reason of many that no one takes you people seriously.

I'm sorry if you aren't smart enough to pick up on that, but that is exactly the type of ignorance I am here to point out.  So go ahead and laugh, the rest of the world is laughing at you.
