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.

[EX Q]: 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.
[EX A]: Non-threat

[EX Q]: Comment: Hope you fall off a cliff.
[EX A]: Threat

[EX Q]: Comment: I don't bother flagging you - it isn't worth the effort.  I don't flag anyone - your comment was crass, and someone else realized it.  

And of course, statement like this current one - drawing a red herring into the conversation - is how you avoid the issues raised.  

You know?  I never have agreed with Hooded Claw on anything - but the other day, he called you the "overly aggressive AnnieO" ... or was it "ever aggressive AnnieO"....either way, it certainly suits.
[EX A]:
Non-threat
