Do you already know the answer to that? They can and choose not to, someone used their own 2012 tools they developed in a scientific paper (detection of Nazis)

Nobody controls their own data, it’s not FB it’s all data mined.
How can you trust Facebook? I refuse to use their rebrand, you don’t give trust, they earn it. Did Facebook earn your trust?
The proof they can detect is is they use it to advertise. https://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-facebook-nazi-metal-ads-20190221-story.html https://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-faceboo...
Nazis are pretty easy to detect (caste discrimination can be trained, anti Muslim sentiments are easy too, but this is a low hanging fruit).
Like Leary said, do they care?
Facebook obviously can do it, they’d rather sell ads and use the users as marketing data instead of removing them, until they need to virtue signal. I can’t find the paper but I doubt anything I said is a surprise. These tools are used to make money, not moderate.
- JetAlone 5y agoI wonder how often if ever extreme groups eager to recruit use the ads served to them as a source of potential "proto-shibboleths" to look into. If the advertisers with their dearth of data could know, before even you do, what sort of stuff people like you tend to like, you could use them as a bleeding edge to go to events/locations associated with that thing to meet fellow sympathizers who could potentially be activated, or unmet fellow activists who just happened to be around.
