Switzerland is the perfect model for what a direct democracy actually looks like and it is nothing like a twitter mob.

Where "voters narrowly rejected a plan to levy taxes on airline tickets and car fuel to tackle climate change".

What's your point? The internet mob views the rightness of such things as being beyond question, an actual direct democracy doesn't. Seems like good support for the original point.

What? This is a totally nonsensical response. Everybody read history knows current Switzerland is a very unique outlier.

Why couldn't other countries just implement the same system? Is there something magical about Swiss people that makes them handle direct democracy responsibly that other populations doesn't have? If you talk about their finances, sure that wont replicate, but there is nothing preventing their model of democracy from working.

This doesn't have to be anything magical. Do you believe there is no cultural difference? Or do you believe culture doesn't matter to a democracy system?

> Everybody read history knows current Switzerland is a very unique outlier.

Correct. But I cannot see how it supports this part that you started with:

> What? This is a totally nonsensical response.

That makes no sense. A Direct Democracy would take into account the people that are not participating in the mob.

That IS what direct democracy is. Those who are the most motivated are a mix of earnest intellectuals and furious emotional reactionaries. The rest stay uninformed and apathetic, voting with the most outspoken they identify with or not at all.
