Is the problem that the password reset link looks like it is throwing an error?

I had this the other day, doing my login once every couple of years.

It required that I turn off any ad blocking and allow cookies to get the "error" to go away. I was then able to do the whole forgot password / login thing.

No. The problem is that Facebook has automatically enabled 2 factor protection(due to large friends count) without corresponding 2 factor methods in place!!. To reset password, 2 factor authentication is needed, but there is no method and it cannot be setup since it requires password!!

And there is no way to contact Facebook.
