Griffin has always been a vocal figure, especially on social media. He has rarely shied away from his opinions. This time around, his comments were directed at the CEO of Twitter, Elon Musk.

Griffin hits at Elon Musk

The entire world was taken aback when Elon Musk acquired Twitter in 2022. While the plan was in the works for a long while, seeing it become a reality was quite astonishing. Post his acquisition, Musk has gone on to make a number of critical changes in the organization. Along with that, the 51-year-old has also made some changes in the features available on the social media platform. While some of them have been welcomed well, others have faced the heat of the users.

One of his latest activities saw him unblocking accounts that he had blocked previously, except for scamming accounts. Elon also went on to suggest with a tweet that all other Twitter users do the same. The thought process behind this is that negative feedbacks turn out to be helpful. This, however, did not bode well with Brett Griffin.

“F**k that” was the initial response from Griffin as he quoted Musk’s tweet. He further went on to check and share the number of accounts he had blocked. As per him, the low count of the blocked accounts meant that there are fewer “dumbass*s” than he had thought.

Griffin likes to comment on Musk’s tweet

This is not the first time that Griffin passed an opinion on Musk’s tweet. The

Kaulig Racing spotter commented on the Twitter CEO’s tweet in April last year, where he pointed out as to what it is a good indicator of a good social media platform’s policies.

Musk believes if the most extreme 10% on the left and right are equally unhappy, it is a good sign as far as the policies are concerned. That being said, Brett Griffin had a different outlook on it. Back then, he suggested that either class shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

While chances are that Griffin meant it in a humorous way, only he knew what he actually meant. Well, given Griffin’s active presence on social media, it is surely not the last time he’s passing on a comment to Elon Musk.
