> Do you think they should also not police sexual content/paedophilic content?

The latter is prohibited by law. The former is also prohibited by law unless Facebook disallows minors from using the platform. Furthermore, there's a distinct social expectation that pornographic content is cordoned off from the public square.

Appealing to common decency in policing political content doesn't work because there's conflicting views on what is and isn't common decency. Plenty of people think it goes against common decency to advocate for defunding police, or expanding abortion. Remember that what you think goes against common decency, there's plenty of people who think it very much does belong in public discourse. And there are plenty of things that you feel belongs in public discourse that others think goes against common decency.

On second thought: Facebook already does what you're advocating. Content that goes against what is genuine common decency - "common decency" meaning that the overwhelming majority of the public supports its exclusion - is removed. It just so happens that what really does go against common decency is much narrower than many people believe and mostly encompasses sexual content.
