Musk responds again that SpaceX will shift its focus to the moon and will eventually accelerate Mars missions

In response to a netizen's post about SpaceX shifting its focus from Mars to the moon, Musk said: "To be clear, we will still advance the Mars mission. I do not think this change will extend the time required to build a self-development Mars city by more than 5 years, and may ultimately accelerate the Mars mission."

Musk responded: "It will start changing the status quo in 2027, the impact will be obvious by 2028, and it will have a huge impact by 2029."
