I’m a bit confused on the solution she advocates. Does she want government, in her case, Duarte, go tell Facebook how to run Facebook? What is her solution?

I think you exactly hit the nail on head, not just about Duarte, but especially about the whole "regulate Facebook" meme

Regulating Facebook, while it mantains its monopoly position, means opening the door to a very grim future.

The problem of Facebook, it's not their internal policies or moderation guidelines. The problem is its own size and prevalence in the world. And this, yes, requires bold public action. Facebook should be seen as infrastructure.
