instruction:
In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: threat and non-threat. Threat is a statement that someone will be hurt or harmed, especially if the person does not do something in particular.
question:
Comment: “Everybody is struggling to find people,” 

Why lie about it? People are there and ready to go to work. Automation through robotics is moving forward, but don't kid yourself why. It saves money, it needs no explanation or ridiculous reason. It is inevitable. The world is changing and it is going to get dire for many who don't move with the changes. We just built a piece of automation where I work. One machine with 4 $32K robots used to build batteries for heart conditions replaced 60 employees. I have been building automation systems for the last 30 years.
answer:
Non-threat


question:
Comment: It is beyond me how the Vancouver Mayor can say, with a straight face: "Vancouverites are frustrated – particularly around housing affordability... We're working hard to deliver solutions..."

Hello?

"We're working hard to deliver solutions"?

Are you kidding me?

Look, Mister Mayor, could you please show me the news reports of you publicly and vocally demanding, to Trudeau and Couillard, that Ottawa and Quebec shut down the Quebec investor immigrant program on the grounds that it has flooded millions upon millions of dollars into the Vancouver real estate market?

See, strange thing, Mister Mayor, is when you Google, in the Google news search, the words "Greg Robertson" and "investor immigrant", you get ZERO hits!

And yet you pretend your team is working hard on house prices, do ya?

Dude, you have been so absent from solutions that your office is not even mentioned - not even once -in the online article summarizing events, "We’ve Let Vancouver Become a Playground for Plutocrats"!
answer:
Non-threat


question:
Comment: the CRA is doing nothing about it - as usual - would rather go after a law abiding hard working middle income tax payer because easier for them to chase YOU.  Pathetic. The CRA is well aware and choosing to turn a blind eye.
