I would argue that this is because Facebook has removed the distinction between actual content (from friends and pages you follow) and paid advertisements, it requires more mental effort to determine if content isn't an ad than for Google Ads, where there's usually a fairly clear distinction between organic content and advertising.

This is why "influencer marketing" has an even higher conversion rate than Facebook or Instagram ads, because the distinction between organic content and advertising is removed entirely.
