Matchmaking is fixed against you, with proof on multiple accounts (won't share names of anything)

I have two smurfs, one in Diamond 4, and one in Platinum 4, I try things on them, and I try to get better at certain things while I TRY HARD, I don't slack off on these accounts at all. Now, this first picture is on the Diamond 4 account, I'm the Irelia and I have gone on a 4-5 game win streak, these were my teammates win rates Vs the enemy

How is that fair at all? Why am I being forced to lose this game?

Now, let's move on to my Plat 4 account. I'm on a very high win streak, winning like 6 games for every loss.

This game I'm the Riven, I'm put on a team with a Gold 2 who isn't duod with anyone because I checked, who is on a loss streak, and was also last season gold. I have a 75% win rate overall in 60 games getting mid-high plat mmr and this guy is barely scratching 60% on a losing streak and getting matched with the same MMR with me. You could also point out that the Trynd is in the same kind of player for the other team, but you're wrong, he's not Gold 1, opgg didn't update yet and he's actually Plat 4 and won 8 of his last 9 games.

This game, I'm the Irelia and put on a team with THREE SUPPORT MAINS, the annie is a support main, the ezreal is a support main, and the sona is a support main. The bot lane is literally 0/10 in the first 9 minutes of the game.

This game takes the cake, our Camille hasn't played a ranked game in over 2 months, and she played like she was on 200 ping, while also never responding to pings or trying to work with the team, she was the closest thing to soft inting you could get. The Jhin/Brand are both support mains, and the Lux gave up and basically inted half way through the game. The Lux is also on a losing streak.

Now, I used to think that matchmaking was fixed against you, and as I got better at the game, easily surpassing Diamond and what not, I brushed that off like it's just some elo hell thing that people say as an excuse because they're hardstuck at an MMR they belong at. I'm actually starting to believe it now though, there are some games where you are actually suppose to lose, and by supposed to I mean, FORCED. I know they say that the matchmaking system is based purely on MMR, but come on, you can't tell me you don't keep track of players APM and how they move in game, and stick those types of players on certain teams to make people lose.

Mods, I have put marks on all names in the screenshots, I am not flaming anyone or witch hunting a person in particular, just some stuff about the matchmaking.

How are all these support mains getting auto-filled? I know it's a more popular position in higher Elo, but goddamn.

..Jesus that looks like most of my games this year except without ranks - I get ace or MVP almost constantly but we lose because of a few players who aren't too good or bright.
