Can't people just retweet with comment? Not very familiar with Twitter, so genuine question.

  Yes: > let users quote-tweet to allow ordinary users to express their opinions.

    So this changes absolutely nothing?

      The tweet appears hidden, replaced by a text explaining that it’s unacceptable and a link to reveal the original message. It seems little but it does send the message that the content is not welcome. I don’t know of any large scale attempt at using that approach to reduce unwanted content. Other approaches, for instance, flagging links as proven false by fact-checkers, has significantly back-fired so I’m curious.

        Okay, good to know. It wasn't clear to me what the actual consequence was of forcing a, "retweet with comment" would be, if the comment could just be "." or something.
