Cenk Uygur engagement report
@cenkuygur - 893K followers on X
Measured over 69 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 29, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 3.2K interactions against 893K followers, an engagement rate of 0.355%. Measured over 69 original posts, its engagement rate beats 90% of 3,917 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 54K times each, and 5.82% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 6.10% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 57% of days. Most posts go out around 21:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 69 posts sampled, 32% are part of a thread and 17% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 25K interactions, about 7.9x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Cenk Uygur's engagement rate beats 90% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,917 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 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 94% 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.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 21:00 UTC, and Tuesday 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.

I just talked to Jewish-American and Muslim-American doctors who were in Gaza and featured in the movie American Doctor. They explained how many kids were shot in the head and chest by Israeli snipers. They're murdering the kids on purpose. 83% of American doctors who went to Gaza reported a child assassinated by a sniper with either a head or chest shot - every single day they were there. They're murdering the children on purpose. One of the doctors explained that when Israel surrounds a hospital, bombs it, raids it and shuts it down, they purposely destroy all the life saving equipment. In the hospital he was in, they destroyed the incubators, and eight babies died without them. We are being forced to finance a fascist country committing a genocide, while the monsters in our government and media pretend it isn't happening.

If tomorrow we weren't allies with Israel, all of our wars in the Middle East would end immediately. Remind me again how being allies with the bullies of the region who oppress and humiliate their neighbors is helpful to American interests. Why is this fiction pushed on us 24/7?

If someone told you God whispered in their ear 3,000 years ago that all of your stuff actually belonged to them, and that they had to drive you out of your home and take it for themselves, you'd call the police because you're talking to a dangerous psycopath.

Israel has slaughtered 75,000 people in Gaza, including 23,000 kids. They're disliked by 2/3 of American voters. Yet not one reporter has asked one candidate why they support a government that committed these atrocities and are hated by the voters. Our media is the Israeli lobby.

Hakeem Jeffries and Jared Kushner had a secret meeting. @nytimes is reporting it was about housing, affordability, etc. Bullshit, there's no chance they'll work together on that. No, it was Jeffries showing his ass to the Israeli lobby. "Don't worry, I'm still on your side."

Canada is our enemy and Israel is our closest ally? Everything in Washington is upside down.

Now Trump is planning on selling off a part of Yosemite to private developers. Is he trying to destroy everything we hold dear? It feels like we're under attack, from the inside.

Everyone in media is asking candidates to denounce @hasanthehun because of things he has said. Yet they have never asked any candidate to denounce Benjamin Netanyahu, who has murdered 23,000 kids. This is supposed to the objective press?

I have a lot of disagreements @hasanthehun and I come from a different part of the party - populist left, as opposed to DSA. But every so-called Democrat who is attacking our candidates based on their connection to Hasan are trying to hurt those candidates on behalf of Israel.
