It really was, but we've largely abandoned that model.

The new model is going to require understanding that there are people who are totally opposed to almost everything you hold dear... and finding a way to interact with them.

Discord (and Reddit, mostly) moderation still works in the old ways. Whenever there's something like a server or channel or subreddit moderation can be delegated, at least somewhat. Maybe vast unstructured oceans like Twitter aren't the way forward?

Maybe people just need to learn how to use their block buttons and maybe people that own these platforms need to grow some balls and tell those same people to get the fuck over it and that not everyone believes what they believe.

No we haven't. Twitter isn't the internet; it's overrepresented in the news because journalists use it, but it's not actually where normal people hang out. Most of the internet (including most social media) doesn't have these problems.
