They don't need your consent if they have another legal basis for using cookies, such as "contractual necessity" or "legitimate interest". You can find the table of the data processing they do and their legal basis for it here: https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/data-processi...

When you're at Twitter scale, you don't really need to adhere to the GDPR, you just need to make a big show of adhering to the GDPR, so that if the EU brings you to court you can lead them through a twisty legal labyrinth that will go on for years.
