I'm an oldie who has been kicking around in fandom spaces for 30+ years. There have always been assholes wanting to squash any enjoyment other's got out of fandom but there were not so many active fans in those days, and less chance of retaining any anonymity if they were assholes. They also had to wait weeks/months for responses to their vitriol (snailmail!) unless made in person at conventions.

The growth of the internet marked a change as now (hundreds of) thousands of new fans could become active in fandom daily. They joined the bulletin boards, then blogs, tumblr, twitter and realized they could hide behind their computers and be assholes AND get responses in minutes/seconds. Instant gratification.

I've been very fortunate that I have managed to avoid most of those toxic people during my time in fandom - sadly not all!
