I've got a Meta Quest 2 as a hand-me-down and yes, it's extremely locked down. It's possible to use a third-party app store, but to make it work you have to get a developer account with Meta and enable wireless debugging.

YOUR HOUSE IS A HOUSE OF PSEUDOSCIENCE! IN THE NAME OF FEYNMAN, MAY NONE OF YOUR PAPERS PASS PEER-REVIEW!!!
In this house we do not recognize phosphine as a biomarker! Get the fuck out of my face!
I don't think it's the lyrics that trigger me, though.
As for movies, I can probably relate. I get annoyed when movies try to push my emotional buttons in a way that feels phony or manufactured. A lot of Disney and Spielberg movies tend to have this effect on me.
That also makes me irrationally angry, even though people should be allowed to be wrong...
Seriously, though, I think there's something about the trick(s) these songs use to get stuck in people's heads that triggers a very negative visceral reaction in me, like I'm being violated somehow. This leaves me no room to appreciate the songs' originality or sound design.
"Toxic" by Britney Spears and "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran both make me irrationally angry.
I haven't tried it myself yet, but I hear the SideQuest app store is the place to go.
