ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) ÷ views— note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate. It is computed over the 4 of 6 measured posts that carry a reaction reading, and over those same posts' views.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.
Reaction mix
70 reactions across 14 posts, in 3 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 77.1% of them.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| ⚡ | 54 | 77.1% | |
| 🔥 | 13 | 18.6% | |
| 👍 | 3 | 4.29% |
No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 14 of the 20 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 70reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 29 May 2026 to 1 August 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

NEW Kulture Dads — Playing with Fire 👉 Get it HERE Fire fascinates little boys. It holds immense power, changes things irreversibly, does what it wants, and does not care one whit about your intentions. At some point, most little boys will develop an obsession with it. And this is not necessarily a dark thing—learning to wield fire is an important rite of passage leading from childhood to manhood. This episode rang…

🎬 Postmodernism — FULL EPISODE ON YOUTUBE We're knee-deep in postmodernism, but it's also one of the most misunderstood cultural movements ever to exist. Is it merely ironic? Is it nihilistic? Is there anything in it that's based? The KDADS explain that for all its cringey elements, postmodernism is also a vitalistic—if imperfect—recovery of the archaic. LIKE COMMENT SUBSCRIBE Youtube
NEW Kulture Dads — Mike Judge 👉 Get it HERE When you think of the 90s, a handful of things come to mind, and invariably among those is Beavis and Butthead, the lovable pair of nihilistic reprobates who want nothing more than to satisfy their basest urges and tell you what sucks. That would be enough, but B&B creator Mike Judge also created many other enduring cultural touchstones such as Office Space, King of the H…

🎬 Pro Wrestling (w/ Academic Agent) — FULL EPISODE ON YOUTUBE In our first guest spot in a while, Academic Agent joins Mike and Dave to discuss pro wrestling. This is a kind of dramatic art with heroes and villains who win the audience's sympathy or hatred. If you understand pro wrestling, you understand democratic politics—the kayfabe drama is exactly the same. LIKE COMMENT SUBSCRIBE Youtube

NEW Kulture Dads — Nietzsche 👉 Get it HERE Friedrich Nietzsche rose from an obscure philosopher who stood unimaginably far outside the polite society of his time to become the most influential thinker since Kant, and arguably more so. A colossal influence on both of the Kulture Dads, and still stubbornly misunderstood even on the right, we give you the best possible crash course on who he is, what he thought, and w…

🎬 Warhammer 40K — FULL EPISODE ON YOUTUBE Mike and Dave tackle a much-requested topic, one that we get requests for almost every week. Warhammer 40K is one of the true liberal bugbears, and has remained mostly poz-free for a generation. We explain why it rustles their jimmies, and what in it has foreverness.

NEW Kulture Dads — Hockey 👉 Get it HERE Well the good ol' hockey game is the best game you can name / and the best game you can name is the good ol' hockey game. A pillar of Canadian identity and one of the most exciting and demanding sports out there, the KDADS pay homage to a cultural institution that inculcates masculine values and is tied up with the North.
🎬 Folklore and The Storyteller — FULL EPISODE ON YOUTUBE Mike and Dave pull out a classic 80s series that some of you guys might have missed. In The Storyteller, we get several folktales narrated with all the uncanny weirdness of the originals in beautiful 80s retro style. This is the big folklore episode—dig in, DADS.

NEW Kulture Dads — Hip-hop Album Trade 👉 Get it HERE OG Kulture Dads will remember the "Old School Hip-hop" episode. Now, 180 or so episodes later, we do a hip-hop album trade. And it was a pretty interesting choice: two records at the hinge of old school vs. the future of the genre. It was also a bit of a reversal: Dave threw Mike a weird curveball, whereas Mike chose a stone-cold classic.
🎬 Grunge — FULL EPISODE ON YOUTUBE Mike and Dave dig into one of Mike's favourite music genres. Often criticized by the right as blackpilled and with terrible politics, and rightly so. But grunge was also the last time the angry white male was allowed into the mainstream, and probably his most total victory over it to date. LIKE COMMENT SUBSCRIBE Youtube

NEW Kulture Dads — Memento 👉 Get it HERE This one has been on the docket since the very beginning of Kulture Dads. One of Mike's top movies, Memento is a revenge thriller with a cerebral twist: the character has amnesia and so the movie is told in reverse order. It's one of those rare movies that gets right both masculine vitalist violence and deep philosophical nuance. An absolute masterpiece, and it was a blast t…
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @kulturedads. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Citation-graph rank
Citation-graph rank — 29,289 of 1,340,412entries in the measured graph. A weighted position computed from the forward and mention edges below — republished posts weigh more than named mentions — and recomputed periodically, over the whole graph. Published only as this ordinal position, never as a score: a position is a fact, and a score printed beside one channel’s name would read as a verdict this register does not make. The two counts beneath stay separate for the same reason mentions are never summed with forwards anywhere else on this page — a named-by count costs nothing to manufacture.

Forward network
Republished by
Channels on the register that have forwarded this channel's posts into their own feed.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
