We tried to fight against having to install Crowstrike on our Linux servers but got overruled by upper management without discussion. I assume we are not the only ones with that experience in the world due to the need to check a checkbox for some flimsy audit.

You're actually confirming their point about culture though. The fact that you couldn't stop them doesn't mean that it also happened to everybody else: some management may have listened. Linux users abhor adding weird shit to their OS, Windows users do it all the time.
