Engagement
A typical post picks up 48 interactions against 73K followers, an engagement rate of 0.066%. Measured over 24 original posts, its engagement rate beats 41% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 2.6K times each, and 1.87% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.52% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.8 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 73% of days. Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 24 posts sampled, 46% carry an image or video and 79% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 202 interactions, about 4.2x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Communist Party USA's engagement rate beats 41% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 6 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 58% 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.

At 0.066%, Communist Party USA sits above the 25th percentile of the 205,475 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.024% to 0.143%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 13:00 UTC, and Monday 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.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 46% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 79% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 46% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 79% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
- Its average post runs 383 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

Happy birthday to Benjamin Davis, Jr., lawyer and Communist, who was elected to the New York City Council in 1943. He served two terms. As the Red Scare intensified, he was unceremoniously ousted. During the early-1950s McCarthy period, he served five years in jail as a victim of the fascist Smith Act.

Happy Birthday Louise Thompson Patterson! Comrade Patterson is an unsung heroine of the African American freedom movement and proponent of socialism. Along with Claudia Jones and others, she theorized the triple oppression (race, class and gender) of African American and other women of color. She was also a co-theorizer along with her husband, William L. Patterson, of the centrality of the Black freedom movement to fight against racism and build class unity.

A typical post picks up 48 interactions against 73K followers, an engagement rate of 0.066%. Measured over 24 original posts, its engagement rate beats 41% of 20,444 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end.

- What is Communist Party USA's engagement rate on X?
- Communist Party USA (@communistsusa) has an engagement rate of 0.066%, based on the median interactions across 24 original posts from the last 30 days against 73,032 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.066%, Communist Party USA sits above the 25th percentile of the 205,475 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.
- Does @communistsusa have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 41% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range 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.
- When does @communistsusa post?
- Most posts go out around 13:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.8 posts per day across the measured window.
