The rest of us make up the people that are on these platforms driving the problem. Should Facebook-the-company do more to limit the abuse? Absolutely -- it's within their power and ability. Is Facebook-the-company the party responsible for spreading misinformation? No, misinformation is driven by people and organizations who, without Facebook, would find different ways of doing so like they have before Facebook.
That's my opinion and I understand there are many folks who have similarly logical opinions countering mine. For what it's worth, I don't even use Facebook and haven't for years. I personally don't find use in it but know others who do.

Facebook actively manages and develops an algorithm for what to show to whom 2. Joint liability, or possibly several liability
