I had to shorten the title slightly. Original:

Meta is the world’s ‘single largest marketplace for paedophiles’, says New Mexico attorney general

I think they mean 'single largest tool for'.

One doesn't buy and sell paedophiles on Facebook.

The polymorphic “for” means “in service of” rather than “that trades” here.

Are you sure?

I can't imagine why someone would want to, but I guess if you really want to buy a paedophile, Facebook would probably be the place to do it!

"Watching paedophiles get raped" doesn't strike me as a very common kink, but I know a woman who's turned on by the Berlin wall, so there's bound to be someone..

I assumed seeing the AG that New Mexico was some company - around here AG is similar to Inc... so like "says New Mexico Inc"

The attorney general is an elected position in the US.

"Think of the children" is a common campaign theme so i suppose he's going for reelection soon.
