It is indeed a people problem, and I'd be happy with people raising more compassionate children whatever media those kids end up using. One could talk endlessly about our failures to provide access to mental health services and support for early years parenting. I think the multi-generational harm that 'it never did me any harm' culture has wrought is immense, but I don't think these are facts of life that we should just concede. But as it is, most schools have more opportunities to intercede and mediate these issues in physical spaces. As parents and communities we have very little experience, and almost certainly inadequate tools for doing that online. It's possible that this is leading to a greater number of bullies and a greater amount of bullying.
