And yet, the Supreme Court in the UK claims that trans people shouldn’t be afforded the same gender-based discrimination protections as their cis counterparts.
Discrimination is a social artifact, based on performed gender, not biological sex (whatever that means), as evidenced here.

I have a Pixel, so I have considered switching to something like GrapheneOS, but historically (with other ROMs) that meant giving up on camera quality and features.
Well, that’s not necessarily true.
Some apps, alongside providing their core functionality, such as messaging, also collect a lot of information from all the permissions they are granted on your device.
Think for example constant location tracking or collecting your contacts, as I believe Facebook Messenger does.
It could be possible to provide a front-end that blocks certain requests or spoofs information.
Of course, that doesn’t stop them from collecting information you directly provide to them by using the service, such as profile information, direct messages, interactions etc.
I suppose you could use these services as a skulker which doesn’t have an account (or a semi-anonymous one) whilst denying all permissions and providing as little information as possible. It’s not wholy black and white.
That said, I do recommend not using these platforms at all if you can. Use alternative platforms that provide similar services. Lemmy vs Reddit is a good example.
It’s just not always practical advice for everyone, given that some people have jobs that require social media, or have no other means of contacting some relatives and friends.
I use Mullvad for their privacy. Not sure if they would fit your needs.

Nope. I complain when it affects me and disadvantaged people. Regardless of the party in power.
Politicians are not your friends and should be held accountable.
The rich and privileged don’t need or deserve more stuff, so I don’t feel bad for them if they are negatively impacted (within reason)

Do what I did a few months back and switch to Obsidian.

The Nazis praised the US’s “scientific” approach to racism and eugenics.
Measuring people’s heads; IQ tests served in a person’s non-native language and relied on specific knowledge of American culture; Plain old racist rhetoric like calling people “dangerous”, “criminals” with no evidence. (Sound familiar?)
Anything to prove that black and foreign people were inferior and should be exploited, in a classic “we know the answer and we must cherry pick the data to reach that conclusion”.
A lot of these tools were taken up by the Nazis for their persecution of Jews, and now they’re coming right back around.
This is an educated meme.
You beat me to it!
