Is this legit? That isn’t just ironic, but that last line is racists as hell. I mean, I’m fairly certain he’s racist if this is real or not but that last part was just so explicit in it
I think (I hope) the last line is from a completely different post, not a reply to the black woman. Tbh I thought it must have been a reply to someone with an NFT chimp avatar. It’s much nicer here in my naïve/sheltered mind than the real world 😕
It’s a different post/thread - you can tell from the time lines with the chimp one being made in 2018. However, no idea what the context of that was, and I’m not going to use Xitter to find out.
I didn’t use twitter before Elon bought it, and have stayed much further away since he has. It’s possible I’m misreading due to something like that, but if I am that’s also poor design. It looks like a legitimate reply to hers. If users can manipulate replies in line with their tweets that just makes the site even worse
I’m not a big Twitter user but how you know this isn’t a reply; firstly the date. The chimp tweet is 7 years old, the block conversation is from 3 days ago. Secondly, you see the white vertical lines between musks first and second tweet? That indicates it’s part of the same thread. The chimp tweet doesn’t have one because the woman has “quote tweeted” something he said in the past. Finally you see how “blocked” is in bold in his last tweet? That happens when you search for a word - it appears in bold in the results. I believe the woman went to musk’s profile and searched all his tweets for “blocked”. Then she quote tweeted it back to him in this conversation.

it has to be because if he actually blocked her she wouldn’t be able to reply to his tweets anymore

I think she’s attaching his chimp comment in her reply as a way of displaying his hypocrisy.
But I’m not sure. I’ve never used Twitter and always find the screenshots stupid to read.

This is correct on all counts, it’s a quoted tweet. What we’re seeing is the “thumbnail” of the link. Click it and go to the post
After looking again I did notice the chimp comment is dated 2018, so I believe I’m correct
He’s a white South African who’s daddy made his money with slave labor. He’s definitely a racist.
