That's not how this works.

And that's my whole basis for being suspicious of Krugman.

When you find out you've been attacked you keep an open mind because you want the guilty party to suffer, not the first random thought that pops into your head.

But I'm sure he directed his "security" people to hand the CPU over to the NYPD immediately to get to the bottom of this. I'm sure they'd love direct evidence of child porn distribution and Paul wants to do his part in stopping this.

It wouldn't be doing so "on his computer", right, even if someone "compromised his IP address"?

It's not his, just ask him.

So let me get this straight. We are supposed to believe that hackers, sent by Q, decided to use a kiddie porn trojan horse hack to take down an accountant? Even better, a bad one. He said the internet would have no more impact on the economy than the fax machine. So these hackers have achieved the ultimate takedown of a guy who isn't worth taking down, to anybody?

C'mon now Paulie. No logical human being really thinks the big bad Q monster is after a dope like you. You're scared and throwing shite against the wall hoping it buys you enough time to kill yourself in peace instead of having to do it in prison after the shame.

Come on man, why not call his security service? Looks like they are doing a hell of a job.

That makes no sense. It’s like he got his line from CSI. Gotta craft those GUI’s with Visual Basic to counterattack!

Wouldn’t the security service call the police and not tell the owner?

His excuse is the electronic equivalent of “these aren’t my pants”.

It's weird that Krugman is trying to pin it on an anonymous person that follows Q, a Qanon. He shows zero evidence for this. He just makes a non sequitur-ish accusation.

Seem like a metal lapse due to stress.

There is actually more evidence pointing to the fact that he just got busted with CP on his computer. "Someone planted it on my computer" is a classic excuse. What's weird, he hasn't called the cops yet, or at least he hasn't notified the Twitter-verse that he has called the cops.

Bingo. His "security service" could be helping to cover up a crime if they don't report this to the NYPD or FBI.

Krugman is a favorite target of anons after the way he’s responded to other things they’ve done. Pressing charges against a person who tweeted him a strobe light gif made his target permanent.

His targeting argument might hold a little bit of water if anons even knew who the frick this dude was, in the first place, much less to pick him to be framed.

Anons know who he is. This is completely unrelated to Q, though.

That's Kurt Eichenwald, not Krugman. But, I see how it's easy to confuse two disgusting (((pedophiles))) though.

It means someone who doesn't understand internet connections, hacking, or downloading files is trying to make an excuse.
