I have a question for you. Why are you so emotionally invested in all of this? Why is everybody else an "imbecile" if they're not on board? It makes you look pretty childish all things considered.
Bitcoins have been raising in value with the exception of this last little hiccup. Sure, you're right about that. It is however a totally unregulated market and one that can only be played in one direction. If MtGox just disappears one day, what will you do about it? What about people that prefer to play markets, commodities, FX and other trades that can be played in both directions on any given day?
Look, I'm happy you consider that you're doing well with bitcoins. I'd urge you to consider that while you've made what, a few thousand dollars on your coins and thus far lost a few thousand on your "mining operation", there are experienced day traders even amongst us here at GFY that are making that and more in a single day. They're not here calling you an imbecile, moron, butthurt etc either. Food for thought.
