You can’t consent to a religion if leaving it causes you to be shunned by your family and community.

Then, according to that logic, not a single person who believes in a mainstream/typical religion is consenting to it, because many families and communities will shun you if you leave their religion. That is a social construct and may or may not happen depending on many factors.

Are you specifically talking about the concept of apostasy in Islam and how it’s supposedly punishable by death?

Yep! It’s truly horrific, isn’t it? If there is an omnipotent god, why do the teachings need to be spread by force an violence by humans? That doesn’t seem very omnipotent to me…
