> Well the fact that the riots were organized on Facebook for the month leading up to it certainly looks inconsistent.

That's misleading. While there was definitely unacceptable activity that slipped through Facebook's moderation, they were making attempts to stop it.

IIRC, a lot of the organization activity on Facebook acted as a funnel to places like Parler. E.g. a protest event on Facebook, calculated to comply with its policies, which linked to Parler or Gab where more illicit planning could take place.
