Is this legit? That isnât just ironic, but that last line is racists as hell. I mean, Iâm fairly certain heâs 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. Itâs much nicer here in my naĂŻve/sheltered mind than the real world đ
Itâs 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 Iâm not going to use Xitter to find out.
Itâs not a reply to the black woman. I donât think Musk is dumb enough to say âchimpâ to a black person in public, but I have been proven wrong before.
I didnât use twitter before Elon bought it, and have stayed much further away since he has. Itâs possible Iâm misreading due to something like that, but if I am thatâs 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
Iâm not a big Twitter user but how you know this isnât 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 itâs part of the same thread. The chimp tweet doesnât have one because the woman has âquote tweetedâ something he said in the past. Finally you see how âblockedâ 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 muskâs profile and searched all his tweets for âblockedâ. Then she quote tweeted it back to him in this conversation.
I wrote (and then deleted) a furious comment because I thought he was responding to her directly, too. I think sheâs just retweeting an older tweet of his, though⊠which is why I deleted the furious comment.
Still, itâs not much of a stretch to imagine him actually, deliberately saying this.

it has to be because if he actually blocked her she wouldnât be able to reply to his tweets anymore

I think sheâs attaching his chimp comment in her reply as a way of displaying his hypocrisy.
But Iâm not sure. Iâve never used Twitter and always find the screenshots stupid to read.

This is correct on all counts, itâs a quoted tweet. What weâre seeing is the âthumbnailâ 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 Iâm correct

Heâs a white South African whoâs daddy made his money with slave labor. Heâs definitely a racist.
