Looking at the numbers, my first thought was that it's fairly diverse as is, and apparently it's getting more diverse. 8% LGBT or trans+ is way higher than I would expect.
Black employees being 4% sounds like little, but it's not exactly Facebook's fault that African Americans have been marginalized for a long time; the important thing is that they're giving everyone a chance. But that does not mean just hiring blindly if the market is not able to provide the candidates they are looking for.
It's sad to hear about bullying still happening - you'd think FB culture would be beyond that. It's also worth noting that people are generally hypersensitive these days, so what is considered bullying by someone is seen as innocent by others.
At some point you have to toughen up and handle some criticism and not see it as bullying (although I'm not saying that's necessarily the case here).
