TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: identity-attack and non-identity-attack. Identity attack refers to anything rude or disrespectful about someone's identity, including appearance, race, gender, and sexual orientation.
PROBLEM: Comment: For me, there's something powerfully wrong when the BC Liberal government goes ahead and  quietly sells-off publicly owned social housing properties/assets like Nicholson Tower, Sunset Towers, or others, without first holding open public consultations/hearings as part of the democratic process involved in the sale of these publicly owned assets first, and that would include the residents most affected by the damn sale and the neighbourhood where the public properties/assets are located - much like public hearings are held on a municipal property re-zoning application for example.  But alas, it seems like our beloved less-than-democratically-open BC Liberal government, deemed this wholly unnecessary.  Why!??

SOLUTION: Non-identity-attack

PROBLEM: Comment: The Calgary coach should buy one of those oversized foam rubber bats, and give a good simulated thrashing to the morons taking all those penalties.  It might embarrass them to stop the stupidity, spending 1/4 of the game in the box.   Dreadful!!

SOLUTION: Non-identity-attack

PROBLEM: Comment: John Lewis!!!  You ARE a RACIST IDIOT!!!  YOU have NO decency whatsoever because you only support your own race.  You do not care about the white race because YOU ARE RACIST!!!  YOU DO NOT belong in public service because not everyone is BLACK!!!
