So, if I buy an e-book reader (NOT Kindle), will I be able to buy and read e-books from Amazon or not?

in theory no, it's not the same format but you might be able to convert from mobi to anything quite easily. converting from epub to mobi works great so it might work the other way too
so yes?

ive never owned a kindle before because i thought they were stupid, but i want to be able to read with the lights off. night vision goggles are pretty expensive; what kindle should one get?

Pocketbook or kobo are so-so. Kindle PW4 is still best deal all around.
As for retarded reasons like "muh botnet" arguments. If you care about that, just jailbreak it. Gets rid
of ads and you can install sane reader software. You'd do almost same dance with other readers, too.

Kinda, there's store for android devices. Android readers suck mightily and are not even that cheap, however.
