You didnt answer my question at all: how does Facebook, prior to the political decision of how to determine what facts are, know that the Pope endorsing Trump is fiction?

Determining what facts are is not a political decision.

Decisions with political implications are not the same thing as political decisions. Huge categorical difference, in fact.
