Engagement
A typical post picks up 59 interactions against 826K followers, an engagement rate of 0.007%. Measured over 25 original posts, its engagement rate beats 29% 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 34K times each, and 0.175% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.09% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.6 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 63% of days. Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Friday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 25 posts sampled, 92% carry an image or video and 44% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 36K interactions, about 612x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
David Icke's engagement rate beats 29% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (20,444 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 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 12% 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 0.007%, David Icke sits above the 10th percentile of the 204,798 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the bottom 25% band, which runs below 0.024%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 09:00 UTC, and Friday 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 | 92% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 44% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | -3% | -3% to -2% | 54K |
- 92% 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.
- 44% 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 105 characters, which falls in the 80 - 180 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 80 to 180 characters run 3% below 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.

Elon is actively trying to suppress this account, and this video. They're losing and they're trying to steer the narrative by censoring. Post this video everywhere. Fuck Elon. Fuck Trump. https://t.co/ulssvmp0Ya

BREAKING: Iran declares the Strait of Hormuz will stay closed until 2029, the end of Trump's term, unless Trump accepts all of Iran's demands, per a senior Iranian source and Majid Shakeri, advisor to Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf. Iran's demands in the US surrender document remain unchanged, $300 billion in compensation, the release of up to $100 billion in frozen assets, lifting all sanctions, US troop withdrawal from the entire region, an end to the naval blockade, and accepting transit fees on every ship.

China created a system that simulates the earth with billions of AI agents that has real personality, memory, beliefs and human-like desires. it gives them a terrifying ability to predict the future. they published a paper called "Modeling Earth-Scale Human-Like Societies with One Billion Agents." they built "Light Society," a framework that efficiently models human-like societies powered by large language models. traditional agent-based models were always limited by simple, predictable behaviors. but this new earth-scale simulation framework uses a "mixture-of-models" engine to change everything. by combining massive llms with smaller, highly efficient distilled surrogates, the researchers successfully simulated a society of over one billion autonomous agents. they grounded these agents using real-world demographic data from the world values survey. these agents don't just act like generic bots.. they exhibit sophisticated social behaviors that mimic actual, diverse human populations. they ran simulations on trust games and massive opinion diffusion, tracking how information spreads and how society evolves in real-time. the simulation proved to have incredibly high fidelity in modeling diverse social phenomena, giving researchers a practical foundation for hypothesis testing. think about what this means for predicting global elections, market crashes, or how a population will react to a crisis.. you don't need to poll people or guess anymore. you just run the simulation. the infrastructure for agentic simulation is scaling faster than anyone realized. social sciences and predictive modeling will literally never be the same..

Mark Zuckerberg is laying out a sweeping vision for AI: a personal superintelligence available 24/7 to everyone. Zuckerberg says these AI agents could eventually help people across nearly every part of life, including work, learning, relationships, and mental health, as Meta releases its new open-weight "Muse Glimmer" model and pushes to make advanced AI more widely accessible. At the same time, Meta is investing in the people and communities behind that future, including America’s Workforce Academy and a $1 billion community fund tied to its growing data-center footprint. His message is simple: "The future is for everyone."

The CIA can remotely take over your car and drive it into a bridge at 140 mph. That’s just one of the revelations from the 2017 Vault 7 leaks, according to former CIA officer John Kiriakou. A disgruntled CIA engineer allegedly dumped thousands of pages of the agency’s most advanced hacking tools to WikiLeaks. The documents showed the CIA had developed ways to: - Hack your car’s computer and seize control - Turn your “off” smart TV into a live microphone - And much more that makes the old MKUltra programs look primitive. Kiriakou says it’s terrifying what the agency is now technologically capable of.

- What is David Icke's engagement rate on X?
- David Icke (@davidicke) has an engagement rate of 0.007%, based on the median interactions across 25 original posts from the last 30 days against 825,963 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.007%, David Icke sits above the 10th percentile of the 204,798 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 @davidicke have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 29% 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 @davidicke post?
- Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Friday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.63 posts per day across the measured window.
