The vast majority of it is forced and although you can make evil choices? They are never really evil as the game wants it all to be too safe and nice.

There's no lecturing in the main story that I recall.

So the cringe pushups scene and the sit down lecturing scene are companion side quests?
Is there any option to not recruit the Taash character or leave them at camp for everything?

Taash is a dragon slayer, you have to recruit her as part of the main story and therefore take her on at least one story mission, possibly two.
But it's pretty easy to ignore that character other than that. The pushups scene is right at the end of their side quest, and is entirely optional.
In fact, by not completing Taash side quest I imagine it's quite easy to get them killed in the final suicide style mission, should you be so inclined.

You have no choice with Taash, zero.
The cringe story happens even if you don't use them in your party, even if you ignore them they declare victory as though they did the work. You cannot remove them from the party as you could with poor characters in earlier games, you legit have no choice whatsoever. You interact with them and get an awfully written "I'm not a man or woman" moment crap happens. It's very difficult to avoid given the set up of the story, and tbqfh I think you know this.
It's awful, period.
Don't play the game and you might enjoy it!
Come on!

Hopefully someone produces a mod to remove her from the game.
Her? Her! Get thee to a reeducation camp pronto.

I 100% completed the game, so if you want to do that then of course you have to complete all the companion side quests. That's a given
But I'm pretty certain that you can opt not to do a single one of the companion quests though, so other than recruiting the character (which I said) and taking them to kill a specific dragon (which I said) you can ignore it.
The only time I intentionally had her in my party was on dragon slaying quests because one of her armours or weapons (can't remember which) does 300% damage to Dragons and because I was playing on a hard difficulty, and often facing them a bit under-levelled, it made sense.
