Top blogging of October

Contra what is normally the case, all of the most-popular posts from October were FROM October.

Also, as you might expect, many of these posts are election-related.

So, let's dig in.

No. 10? Kind of indirectly election-related, as a federal judge said Texas AG Ken Paxton's use of an old state statute is unconstitutional. Paxton had been using this to harass out-of-state hospitals over certain types of childhood medical treatment for which this non-twosider has not yet thought of an appropriate term in his own Wittgensteinian linguistic world.

No. 9? "Fucking Donald Trump is why I'm no longer on Twitter" was written a day or two before Elmo Musk has his goons restore Ken Klippenstein, then me. Definitely election-related.

No. 8 is about Robert Roberson getting justice — for now, even as Kenny Boy keeps fighting legiscritters.

No. 7 is related to an election — that of 2012. It's about how many Black men saw through Dear Leader in his re-election campaign.

No. 6? I called out "pergressuve" blogger Charles Kuffner for practicing election disinformation when he said that write-in candidates aren't on the ballot.

Fifth? Counterpunch further lost me (it had been losing me before that) with leaning into anti-BDSer / pro-duopolist Noam Chomsky and lesser evilism endorser Ralph Nader. (I noted as part of this all of Nader's laundry list of problems along with why I think Jeff St. Clair ignores those issues.)

No. 4? My third-party roundup of Oct. 12 may have been popularized by Cort Greene's voluminous butt-hurt commenting. Fire away again!

No. 3 is sadly and disgustingly indirectly tied to the U.S. election. It's my thoughts on the one-year anniversary of Oct. 7, 2023 in Gaza and beyond.

No. 2? I did a thorough takedown of butt-hurt editorial page staffers at the LA Times and Washington Post over their owners' refusal to let them write a presidential endorsement editorial. In a spin-off follow-up, I noted this was kabuki theater because these endorsements would have been out of date anyway.

No. 1? Voters of Tomorrow is indeed full of shits and sellouts.
