Fauxgress 

Technological advancement that actually diminishes utility / usability compared to what it replaced.

Favoured in particular by technology companies desperate for people to upgrade their devices, they will add on all sorts of flashy new functionality which at best is useless, and at worst is actually less functional than the prior version (see: the removal of the headphone jack on smartphones).

"Man, the face-unlock on this new phone is total fauxgress - it makes me move my phone in front of my face whenever I want to unlock it; thumbprint unlock was way more simple"

Fauxpresentation 

Fauxpresentation is when an entity or entities do the BARE MINIMUM to represent a marginalized group, minority, and the underrepresented with shallow interest. The efforts made to include said groups is usually half-assed, cloying, offensive, stereotypical, etc. Faux-presentation usually happens, but is not exclusive to, when people want more money, clout, votes, album sales, and etc.

Most political campaigns use fauxpresentation of minorities around election time but neglect them after election season is over.

I'm sick of all the fauxgressivism these days. What's progressive about this whole "FOREIGNERS ARE STEALING OUR JOBS" bit?

fauxpression 

The claim of some kind of oppression or other adverse condition being inflicted against the claimant personally or to a group/faith to which the claimant belongs to that is obviously hyperbolic or at least certainly exaggerated in terms of severity.

Generally Ted's libertarian beliefs seemed to have merit until he went fully down the fauxpression road by claiming that taxes literally made him a slave.
