In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: insult and non-insult. Insult is any lanugage or act that is disrespectful or scornfully abusive.

Q: Comment: I'm not surprised that support for women is coming from bishops in India--nor am I surprised that the 2012 Delhi gang rape was cited as a catalyst. If you have ever had the opportunity to listen to one of the rapists . . . soft-spoken but quietly unrepentant because, after all, the woman asked for it by being out and about with a man who was not her husband or brother. Absolutely horrifying. There is one region in the country as well where tribal leaders refuse to allow "their women" to have any rights; they are literally barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen.

The bishops of India see firsthand what patriarchy has done to the women of India and have the moral courage to become agents of change. There are also some pro-women's-ordination advocates among them. May they continue to speak out!

A: Non-insult

Q: Comment: Gore won the popular vote. It came down to Florida and Gore was in the process of conceding when the closeness of the Florida vote triggered an AUTOMATIC recount. That recount, with its problems, made a court review necessary, not optional.
Try being coherent: we're talking about Trump screaming, before a ballot is cast, that the election is rigged, that he cannot commit to conceding after the ballots are counted. Context is all. You probably don't even know that Pence has said he would abide by the voter's will. Or that many, many Republicans already are condemning Trump's words.
I suppose you're fine with Trump sniggering on Howard Sterns's show as the great lecher described Trump's daughter as a hot "piece of ass." What father wouldn't punch that guy in the face? Trump is a very sick man. At this juncture, to support him is the act of a morally confused person.

A: Insult
