Of course Facebook knows that they are running employment ads. They don't know _which_ ads are employment ads, because they are not paying anyone to look at the ILLEGAL advertisements they know that they are running.

"But having humans review ads doesn't scale!" says someone with a financial position in online advertising.

Meanwhile, the massive profits of the online advertising companies have forced them to 'pivot' into real estate holding companies, during a period of persistent underemployment and stagnant wage growth.

Yep. Nothing can be done. We have to wait for artificial intelligence to save the day. It would simply cut into profits too much to follow the law.

> They are not legally required to hire you on the basis of any demographic you fall into (no equality of outcome).

Huh?

> But pretending that the businesses doing outreach are 100% accountable for "SOLVING" every demographic composition is simply not vested in reality

Uhh....

You're arguing against things none of the ancestors have argued.

You use an example (geographic location of a university), however that is not a protected class under US labor law.

> Presuming bigotry can be in itself a form of intolerance

There certainly are bigots running companies, and in hiring committees. Even in Enlightened Silicon Valley! Ignoring that fact is one of the reasons Facebook now faces a federal lawsuit with substantial merit.
