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: And of course, the upcoming election will remind Canadians how the Liberals lied about electoral reform. Unlike the Harper government, this is a craven gang that hopes to quietly sell out the country to plutocrats and corporations while no one is looking. Trudeau is a pathetic neoliberal stooge peddling a discredited ideology. "Sunny ways" is the same trickle down economics delivered with a smile and patronizing condescension.
