HN leftists can’t abide any facts that put Krugman in a bad light. I pointed out he advocated a housing bubble I’m getting downvoted too.

HN is a farm for socialist sheep and explicitly anti-intellectual.

Krugman is both an intellectual and neither a leftist nor a socialist (he's somewhere, economically, between centrist and center-right), so even if HN was a leftist camp of socialist anti-intellectuals, that wouldn't explain a fondness for Krugman.
