I haven't logged in to facebook for a long time and when I tried they wanted my government ID or else they wouldn't let me into my account.

I don't want to give Facebook my ID so I'm not sure how I can delete my account without doing that.

Not sure if this could work, but did you try using a VPN to log in from an EU country?

Honestly don't know how the GDPR might affect this, but might be worth a try
