Task: Toxic Language Detection
Input (English): You probably want exactly what I want: NO American involvement in the ME, at all. NO support of Israel until it allows Palestinian statehood. UN voting to lead to long-delayed sanctions against the criminal state of Israel.
I favor incarcerating Wall St. criminals.
And a large tax on fuel to be used to subsidize alternatives.
I believe in universal free health care.
And I'd slash the Defense Dept. budget 50%.
But, though these things all are defensible and I believe they would be best for our nation, I realize these things are not going to happen.
The best we can hope for is to make small inroads: that's how change happens. With your attitudes, we would have had a far worse country. More Bush, pere. And McCain. Perhaps Sarah Palin. Mitt Romney.
You couldn't argue we'd be better off.
As far as Obama: we are FAR less militarily involved in Afghanistan or Iraq, Syria or Iran. We are not at war.
"Punting" isn't an option, Lynn.
"The enemy of the good is the perfect".
Output (English): No
