"It remains confounding to me that a person who tried to overthrow the government, and used Facebook to help him do it, ultimately got off with a two-year time out. Especially when much more benign users, notably sex educators, are routinely given permanent suspensions. At the same time, Trump hasn’t been held accountable by the US government, either. ... We find ourselves calling on Facebook to do what prosecutors so far have not"

The government is the forum to punish people for breaking the law, not big tech.
