Indeed. If sufficiently decentralized, you could just do it with block lists that could be maintained by unaffiliated individuals. Anyone can post anything they want on Thur own sites, but you can opt to trust someone’s judgment about blocking, and apply a curated list of people whose posts you won’t see and who can’t comment on your public posts. That way, everyone could decide on their own community standards, without any intervention from a central authority.
