| Community | Nodes | Edges | Average degree | Clustering coefficient | Reciprocity |
| Left | 9,941 | 803,329 | 80.80 | 0.134 | 42.8% |
| Right | 6,426 | 1,503,417 | 233.95 | 0.221 | 64.8% |
Reciprocity is defined as
, where
is the number of dyads with an edge in each direction and D is the total number of dyads with at least one edge. Follower data was only available
for a subset of the study population, owing to private or deleted accounts.
