This feels like a joke that anticipates the community notes as a punchline. I don't frequent Twitter, but I have to imagine this is a burgeoning genre of comedy tweet

I haven't seen it used that way yet, but seems like a clever meta. Honestly community notes might be the only good thing on the entire platform. My favorite is when there are community notes on ads.

Oh I didn't expect that to be a thing on ads. It's clear nobody is in control at Twitter, any sane social platform would have killed that on ads.

If it is in fact a joke, this format has been around forever, it just has a new implementation here.

Sure agreed; anyone who has seen Arrested Development has seen this basic dynamic play out a few dozen times, and that's just one example.
