I support kicking these kids of social media (and, really, the Internet in general) but the question is, as always, how?
I mean "How, without ushuring in a nightmarish police state?"

Somebody is gonna set up a simple social media centric VPN app for these idiots and have one hell of a botnet

Annnnd? VPN would still work
you said "social media centric" when all you need is VPN
what you'll get is Instagram for under 18s instead
I'm talking about rolling an app and marketing it as a go around for social media to sell to idiots and hypothetically creating a very large botnet
ok, off you go then
Idiot

IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH SOCIAL MEDIA
Blatantly unconstitutional.
They do not give a fuck about the Constitution
Just a reminder that NO words are working.
