quote-tweet
Shared with commentary
A quote-tweet is a repost of someone else's tweet with your own commentary attached, allowing you to respond publicly while preserving the original: She quote-tweeted the politician's claim with a single word: "Lies.".
Unlike a simple retweet, quote-tweeting invites critique, mockery, or elaboration.
The practice often signals disagreement—being "ratioed" in quote-tweets suggests widespread disapproval.
