But what disease do those suffer from who don't care about Bitcoin, but miss no opportunity to talk about it when there is a cryptocurrency theft on some exchange or when it drops in price or some country gives up using it as a store of value?

Reverse buyer's remorse.
They've known about it long enough to have profited in fiat terms from Bitcoin.
This bruises their ego because they've objectively been wrong during that time, and they know it.
They can't handle the idea that they've been wrong...UNLESS they were only wrong for a little while until ULTIMATELY being proven RIGHT in the end.
It's the sunken cost fallacy which is the bread and butter of the ego.
So true. I blame the New York Times, which sets the tone for mainstream media and which cannot write a fair article about Bitcoin.
