Apr 26, 2023 at 2:07 comment added fedja @SophieMacDonald Yeah. The key words were actually those by Penelope: " I expect it can be false only when the both the first and the second factor (and therefore their product) are very close to $0$", so I just took a graph for which one expectation was exactly $0$ (a star with $4$ edges instead of two long loops), checked that the other one was negative, and then shifted the zero expectation up a tiny bit without altering the distributions too much.
Apr 24, 2023 at 19:44 comment added Sophie M @fedja Beautiful! That's quite similar to what I was trying in my answer below, but the analysis of your graph is a lot simpler!
Apr 20, 2023 at 1:43 comment added fedja I believe that the graph with root $v$ to which you attach 3 triangles with vertices (other than $v$) labeled $1$ and two very long loops with vertices labeled $-1$ is a counterexample. Check it!

Added concentration inequalities hoping they can help

Apr 18, 2023 at 10:11 comment added Penelope Benenati Thank you @SophieMacDonald for the question. I forgot to add $f$ to the question, as you can see reading now my post. I expect that the inequaility is true, and in the case I am wrong, I expect it can be false only when the both the first and the second factor (and therefore their product) are very close to $0$, say $o(g(\mathrm{degree}_G(v)))$ for some concave function $g\in C^{\infty}$ when $\mathrm{degree}_G(v)\to\infty$ in the counterexample class, which I expect to be infinite and containing arbitrarily large graphs.

Added $f$ in the question with a universal quantifier
Apr 18, 2023 at 3:19 comment added Sophie M Also -- do you expect this to be true or false, i.e. do you expect a proof or a counterexample? Where did it come from?
Apr 18, 2023 at 3:00 comment added Sophie M The function $f$ is fixed when taking the expectation?
