You have to realize the tough situation these companies are in. They allow misleading ads through? They're blamed for manipulating elections and profiting off of it to push one side's agenda. They censor misleading ads? They get blamed for censoring free speech to push another side's agenda.
There is literally no right decision a social media company can make here that doesn't involve getting completely shat on by ~half the population.
