For most of the past several years, I have compiled a list of the 10 Most Viewed posts at Legal Insurrection based on page view stats:
In 2017, I instead did my favorite posts, because there were no real standout posts, In 2017 we had fun, fun, fun, and in 2021, because coverage of two trials (Rittenhouse and Chauvin) so dominated the rankings, Save The Country – My Top Ten Posts Of 2021.
So this year, I’m again doing my favorites because coverage of the Gibson’s Bakery appeal conclusion and payment so dominated the Top 10 most viewed. So here are my favorites of 2022, organized around a theme: Things Fall Apart.
William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
I’ve grouped posts by topic, rather than a straight listicle.
Clearly the biggest blog event of the year. Six years in the making. We started coverage from when the protests happened over the shoplifting, through trial and appeals. And finally the Gibsons were paid, a story we were the first to report.
Mike, Leslie, and Fuzzy celebrated 10-year anniversaries at Legal Insurrection. It seems like just yesterday those young kids joined us. And we reached a milestone with our 1 millionth reader comment.
Those we lost along the way this year.
Two blockbusters, Abortion and Mar-a-Lago.
They lie. They lie about lying. They lie about lying about lying.
Perhaps the best (and worst) example of how control of language is dominated by the left. Ibram Kendi’s so-called “anti-racism” ideology that dominated campuses and increasingly corporations and government, calls for racial discrimination.
It can’t continue on this trajectory. Something has to give. Be prepared.
