Let your Congress-critters know this is not the right thing to do.

It was built into Apollo (the Reddit app for IOS). You could type something highlight it and select “sPonGeTExt” from a menu to set random letters uppercase in a block of text.
It could be a vim plugin.
I want to sponsor an act called like MURDER DEFENSELESS CHILDREN AND BANISH THEIR SOULS TO HELL ACT, but it’s just a tax cut for rich people.

I want them to pass an act called “Stop Protecting Kids on Social Media.” It can be part of the FUCKTHEMKIDS omnibus.
Yikes, please click on the link and do submit to your reps. Very easy to do. This kind of save the children labeling almost always gets voted in, so this is an uphill battle, but this is clearly a power grab, don’t let them take this, the implications are quite frightening. If policies like fosta / sesta can become reality, this can too. Things are degrading rapidly, fight it!
One of my Senators is Marsha Blackburn, whose photo is used in this cal to action. She will tell me that I’m stupid and should support the bill, and then I’ll be on her GD mailing list again (it is very difficult to get removed from that list).
Should be filterable though. It’s a very small vocal minority that even uses these automated letters to contact legislators. These don’t go unnoticed. May feel like a drop in a bucket but I think it’s best to go down fighting.
Absolutely nothing hypocritical about politicians who are willing to sacrifice literally everyone outside of the people in their family wanting to ahem SaVe ThE kIdS. /s
At what point do we say “Screw it”, let Congress pass all the bills to wreck the internet, and then build a better one?

At no point.
Congress is going to say “Screw it” and pass what they want anyway.
How exactly does one build a “better one” that doesn’t automatically get included in the coverage of bills like this?

Long past time to do it. It’s not even congress but the market share of the internet has been centralizing around the handful of FAANG or whatever acronym. Unfortunately too much of the tech nerd population have been seduced by the dark side. A reconstructed world wide web would be very hard to gain enough traction without enough nerds backing it.
