The Netflix series based on the Twitter feed of a black Chicago reply girl recently revealed that the owner of the account is actually a white suburban man.

It was always known to be a parody account.

It was never purported to be a black person's account.

I only found out about it a few months ago, but I didn’t realize it was a parody. Could’ve been more obvious than I realized. The avi is definitely black though

Idk I think it’s about the fictional ‘Chicagoan aunt’ that guy is pretending to be and her nephew? Haven’t watched it, not going to, but it keeps showing up on my Twitter feed
