This is the biggest part of how quote-tweets damage Twitter.

It's a design choice that encourages people to amplify and accidentally normalize extremist wack-jobs.

Opt-out won't fix that.

@apLundell @Beedazzled Yes, this is the point which worries me most, too. If there was a way to prevent it, I’d probably be fine with opt-in/opt-out quote posts. Problem is, the wackos are the ones who are definitely not going to opt out, and much of the conversation will once again be centered around them. @Gargron
