Of course he can. And he already does I assume, considering his other remarks in the comment. So including him in the 'we' does not really make sense ... if you consider it a question. Which it is not.

That would be us dude, but not him as there is no reason to ask him, his position is clear.

Exactly my thoughts. Seems like asking genuine questions is not acceptable anymore because some people can’t help but to resort to personal attacks. Unbelievable.
You can't see replies on Twitter links anymore, though that doesn't really matter in this particular case.
Of course, who knows what it'll be doing tomorrow. I'd definitely think it's probably time for HN to prefer Mastodon (or Threads, I suppose) links, where a post is available on multiple microblogging things; Twitter has had any one of about five behaviours for non-logged-in linked tweets (work properly, work but without replies, spin forever, redirect to login, generic error page) over the last week, depending on when you try.
No point in supporting that user-hostile tire fire.
This could have been on Mastodon.
