A typical post picks up 2.4K interactions against 468K followers, an engagement rate of 0.513%. Measured over 12 original posts, its engagement rate beats 91% of 3,882 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 81K times each, and 2.99% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 17.2% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 30% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 12 posts sampled, 33% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 23K interactions, about 9.6x its own typical post. Recurring topics include #damascus, #syria, #trump.

Compared with accounts its own size

Caitlin Johnstone's engagement rate beats 91% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 81% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.513%, Caitlin Johnstone sits above the 75th percentile of the 37,701 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the top 25% band, which runs 0.439% to 2.10%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,701 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 104,204 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 00:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

    Europeans stopped fighting constant wars with each other like ten seconds ago and yet the average white westerner will tell you "the middle east has always been at war so all the bloodshed there is an unsolvable mystery".

    I hope ASIO are watching the Extreme Left on X. These radicals are charging further away from reality in lockstep with every nation ruining move their leaders make.

    Remember when Israel orchestrated a terrorist attack in Lebanon using exploding pagers, and then Zionists spent the next year telling all anti-Zionists that they were going to murder them using explosive electronic devices? That was wild.

    Centrists are going to keep concern trolling about "antisemitism" until everyone to the left of Hillary Clinton is politically neutered. The mass media are going to keep concern trolling about "antisemitism" until pro-Palestine protests are illegal. Zionists are going to keep concern trolling about "antisemitism" until everyone in west Asia who opposes Israel is dead. This latest wave of Hasan Piker hysteria shows that there is nothing these freaks won't pretend to believe in order to stomp out criticism of Israel and shut down all leftward movement in US politics. The guy made the completely obvious and indisputable observation that Jews are endangered by the Zionist tactic of painting all Jews as a monolith who support Israel, and now the top Democrats in Washington are pretending to believe he said Jewish people deserve to be attacked. The way they're all just lining up behind a narrative they all know is false has got to be one of the most nakedly cynical uses of this smear I've ever seen employed. Writing about "antisemitism" smears in the year 2026 is so tedious, because everyone already knows this tactic is bullshit and everything worth saying about it has already been said. But it really is fascinating how they're looking us right in the eye and telling us they're going to keep using this weapon to slash at the left until the blade has completely broken rather than simply espousing popular policies that make the world a better place.

    ***EXCLUSIVE*** Palestine Action is to be designated a global terrorist organisation by the United States, @Telegraph can reveal. The far-left group will be sanctioned alongside groups like Hamas, al-Qaeda and the Islamic State in a move that will leave supporters facing a lifetime ban from entering the US. The group will become the first known case of a British left-wing activist group to be subject to American counterterrorism sanctions. Its assets in the United States, including bank accounts and property, will be frozen, while Americans will be blocked from doing business with the group. Britons who continue to fund the organisation or take part in protests could themselves face harsh sanctions and visa bans, The Telegraph understands.

    Azov founder Andriy Biletsky in 2020, back when he had neither the protection nor the resources of the Presidential Office: “We don’t need awards from a man who betrays everything we fought and went to war for. Not a single volunteer will accept an award from Zelenskyy.” Biletsky in 2026: accepts the title of Hero of Ukraine from Zelenskyy. Apparently, principles of 🇺🇦neo-Nazis don’t die — they just get promoted, decorated, and buried with full state honors and Western funds 🤪

Reading these numbers

A typical post picks up 2.4K interactions against 468K followers, an engagement rate of 0.513%. Measured over 12 original posts, its engagement rate beats 91% of 3,882 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 81K times each, and 2.99% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 17.2% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 30% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Sunday is the busiest day of the week.

Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.513%, Caitlin Johnstone sits above the 75th percentile of the 37,701 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.

Its engagement rate beats 91% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts), which puts it in the top 10% for its size group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.

Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Sunday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.93 posts per day across the measured window.
