The block function is being abused and misused in order to downrank blue users algorithmically in a roundabout way (to reduce their reach); and, to block all promoted tweets indiscriminately. Example: search this user → @Esqueer_ from:esqueer_ blocking

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1692558493255942213
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
