Engagement
20 posts held, back to 1 March 2023 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 30 August 2023. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
What this channel posts

Measured directly from 7 videos with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel — not this channel’s whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegram’s own rounded chrome, so it carries no ≈ mark.
Reaction mix
1 reaction across 1 post, in 1 kind.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| 👍 | 1 | 100.0% |
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 1 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 1reactions 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 1 March 2023 to 30 August 2023, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

Must Watch: Actor Ian Smith reveals on yesterdays Australia’s Morning Show that his wife isn’t in attendance because she has had a “violently bad reaction to her last Covid shot and she’s really down for the count.”
Stanford Prof. Jay Bhattacharya on NBC talking about Tony Fauci and Francis Collins controlling science and the COVID-19 narrative: "The central sin is hubris. You have a relatively small number of highly placed top scientific bureaucrats, people like Tony Fauci and Francis Collins, in charge of tens of billions of dollars, and they control the success and social status of scientists." https://twitter.com/KanekoaTh…
"Dr. Jim Kellner, a pediatrician and University of Calgary professor, has been cited as an authority in dozens of articles published by CTV News, CBC, Global News, the Toronto Star, and the Globe and Mail on vaccinating children and other pandemic related issues.

The Virality Project Talked Explicitly With Twitter About Censoring True Stories of Vaccine Side Effects Matt Taibbi: "They believe that ordinary people can't handle difficult truths. And so they think that they need minders to separate out things that are controversial or difficult for them. And that's, again, that's totally contrary to what America is all about." https://twitter.com/VigilantFox/status/16338922512…
"Gladue says he had a bad reaction to his own shot and wants to decide whether his son is vaccinated. 'Allow him to carry on and let his immune system develop. Especially at that age,' he says. 'Being if you look at our history as Indigenous people, if you look at the forced sterilization, the history of forced vaccination pushed on our people, we should be learning from our history and what its done to our people i…
Written by a BBC employee under a pseudonym: "How had this happened? Why had my tribe abandoned the values I thought underpinned its credo? I understood that many of them wanted to 'do the right thing', but how could shutting older people out of society for years — and, in many cases, forcing them to live the last months of their lives in desperate sedentary isolation — be right? How could preventing a husband from …

NEW – MTG & Fmr. CDC Dir. Redfield on COVID's GoF Origins & Fauci's Coverup "This lab published in 2014 that they accomplished allowing coronaviruses...to bind to the ACE-2 receptor in humanized mice.

Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @takethetonic. 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.
Forward network
Republishes
Channels on the register whose posts this channel has forwarded.
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.
Mentions
Names
Channels on the register whose handles appear in this channel's posts.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
