espousing capitalist principles to fight capitalism while criticizing someone for engaging in capitalism simply because you dislike/disapprove of their choice of smartphone rings a bit disingenuous to me.

a single choice by a single person isn’t really “fighting capitalism” in any meaningful way, certainly not by doing anything more than making a symbolic gesture. Fairphones do much more to support user privacy, open-source software, the right to repair, and consumer choice than anything else.
