Spam is not a person by definition. It's junk data/message like arbitrary data in OP_RETRUN, OP_FALSE OP_IF etc. in the Bitcoin protocol. (I suspect a trolling attempt and give the benefit of the doubt)
I guess you're asking about spam on the network, like ordinals which will cause fees to jump significantly and fill up the mempool. So far,vtheyve blown over after a few hours or days so you can wait it out if you don't have any pending transactions to make at that time. You should also consolidate your smaller inputs when fees go lower now, so you'll be spending less if their is a few spike.

I don't know why 'quit bitcoin' is in the options.
