This is an accessibility violation, not a feature request.
I have albinism. Pure white backgrounds (#FFFFFF) cause physical eye pain and trigger migraines. Mozilla's own sites – support.mozilla.org and accounts.firefox.com – force this white background and explicitly block all user overrides.
What Mozilla has done:
Blocked extensions (Dark Reader, Stylus, Dark Mode) from modifying these pages via Content Security Policy.
Ignored the system prefers-color-scheme media query.
Removed all about:config toggles that could override this.
Left no built-in dark toggle.
The only workaround is a userContent.css hack requiring manual file editing and a browser restart – not acceptable for blind or visually impaired users.
This is not a vote. This is a fix required for basic accessibility.
I now have a migraine from this support site's #FFFFFF background – which I cannot read because of the barrier I am reporting. Paul @plwt deflected me to a marketing article, then to Connect, then refused to escalate. He helped author the Connect article and knew exactly what I needed but gave me runarounds instead.
I should not have had to create this Connect post too.

This is the structural violence I named. Now someone with authority, respond.
