It was never just the anonymity, it was the lack of consequences as well. Combined those two often lead to people showing their worst selves.

Now though? Often those worst characteristics are applauded by others. It's disappointing.

Problem is, things are so divided right now that you can say anything and one half of the divide will support you just about no matter what.
