Yes, it's not much different from tipping. Puts the burden of responsibility in the wrong place. If a business wants to support charities and use it in marketing, just give money to charities and tell people how much it was. And/or give people the contact details of the charities if you want to promote them.

It's not funny anymore, and it wasn't really that fun then, although satire is a valid method of political commentary. But week after week, there's nothing new, nothing that's more shocking than what was already known. They're fully and completely terrible persons, who should never have political power. Don't need to embody them to understand that.

But commercial hydrogen is made in a very carbon-intensive way, although it’s possible to make with zero emissions.

Even in an ideal case, you're using up energy that could've been used to reduce emissions elsewhere.

Seriously, because she's from a different universe, her actions of committing genocide and torture across any number of star systems are irrelevant?

If Starfleet doesn't care what people do "in their own space", how could they ever have a problem with anything? Just declare yourself a ruler, obviously democracy doesn't play into it, and you decide what you can do anywhere you are.
