Wow Facebook can’t win huh. Lax moderation and one set of people complain about fake news and sensationalism, strict moderation and another set (I hope) complain about censorship. Not an enviable position.
It's very hard for humans, much less algorithms, to quickly distinguish marginalized speech of the legitimate, unpopular, thought-leading, high-integrity from conspiracy theorist, utopian, pipe-dream, violence-advocating, mystical nonsense without a deep evaluation of a large sample of content, including understanding satire, snark and comedy. Jimmy Dore, Chris Hedges, Phil Donahue come to mind as marginalized, reliable sources.
Maybe some obvious topics can be blacklisted if they're repeatedly, seriously mentioned like chemtrails, anti-fluoridation, anti-vaxx, zero-point energy, pizzagate and antisemitic conspiracy theories... and an appeal for those who get caught up in a comedy refrain.
