Having of all people FB to be your arbiter of truth of what is a fact based political ad vs a non-fact based political ad sounds like a dystopian nightmare.

What we perceive as fact is actually something derived from a lot of open discourse based on a lot of evidence. Removing open discourse based on whether the discourse is fact based is circular reasoning and a chicken & egg problem. It's not fact check, it just becomes outright censorship.
