Sorry to pop your bubble here but everyone with a minimum of financial literacy understands how inflation, Cantillon-effect work. And the inner workings of the fiat system aren't a secret either.
The vast majority of these people are not Bitcoiners (yet). They have been profiting of the fiat system by investing in e.g. stocks and real estate for decades.
You could say that they are still playing the fiat game by exploiting it instead of being its victim. But you could just as well say that they aren't playing the fiat game. The difference is negligible.
Good points.
One difference between Bitcoiners and the fiat-game exploiters is that Bitcoiners are actively working to take down the fiat system whereas the former are helping to prop up the system. Even if they're only in it to exploit it, they are supporting it by doing so. Perpetuating it.
Using and holding Bitcoin instead of fiat makes the fiat system weaker. I think this is a more than negligible difference.

Are they? 😂😂 The difference between ”escaping from” and "working to take down" is a perspective thing at best.
