On another note, I've seen a lot of players continue to bet their button when the villain is shoving/folding every hand.

This depends a lot on the villain. If you give them the impression you're just waiting for a hand by folding a bunch in a row, they will often start to fold occasionally if you start raising a few on the button, and sometimes just check if you limp.

It's very important to find out if they're going to fold or check, for two reasons:

First of all, you don't want to come up with AA on the button, limp, and have them check/fold the flop because they have J4 and missed entirely. If you're raising periodically, even folding to a push reinforces the idea that they can just run you over every hand.

The second reason is that if they are willing to fold when you raise, you can maintain your stack a lot better by throwing out a raise here and there, while you're waiting for the hand you're going to go with.
