As hard as it may be to hear, to some extent that is likely a “you” problem. Start a culture of not having to have the camera on, figure out good reasons to have to exit such wasteful calls, etc. Continuing the same thing and whining about it melodramatically is unlikely to be fruitful

I wasn't being melodramatic.

It is a me problem. Everyone else seems to love this random assortment of asinine "culture" and "team" concepts. I've worked at my share of places and it's always the same. "Standup is like 15 minutes." and it is. but then you have the 45 minutes leading up to it where they talk about what they did the night before or what their kids are doing or what life is like with their pet they've had for a decade. Everyone else seems to care and care deeply. I do not. At all. I just wastes my time.

We just assume the guys who have that zone out and work on things, we ping them when they need to be active. Easier to do with cameras off.

One day hopefully I'll manage to find one of these magic unicorn positions that y'all seem to have around these parts. Until then I'll have to do with wanting to die rather than be at work.
