Is it possible to nest VPNs, i.e. connect to a VPN in the location of the preferred fake home, then connect to Facebook's VPN through that? I genuinely know enough about VPNs to know if this is possible or not.

Yes. This kind of thing is generally called "tunneling", not "nesting". As applied here, "chaining" would make more sense.

Oops, I meant to say "genuinely don't know enough about VPNs". Too late to edit now...
