TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: toxic and non-toxic. Toxicity is defiend as anything that is rude, disrespectful, or unreasonable that would make someone want to leave a converation.
PROBLEM: Comment: This report really hits home for me. The real issue is that both young and old use their phone when they are driving or walking in public. These individuals believe that they can handle it. Reality hits when an accident occurs. Reality hit for me in 2008: my 11-year old was walking home from school - half-way through a crosswalk with the light still green and not on his phone - and he was hit by a large SUV that ran a red light. The driver was a mother who was on her phone and her kids were in the back seat. From police report, my son was thrown 140 feet. He survived. The woman's license was suspended in lieu of imprisonment. Almost 9 years later, my son is still piecing together his life. His little sister said it best: you can add up the medical bills and missing days from school, but you cannot bring back his fun-loving spirit; our family life was shattered. Is it worth it? Is it about your entitlement to your phone? Or is it more?

SOLUTION: Non-toxic

PROBLEM: Comment: What an incredibly stupid woman - too much peroxide over the years seems to have seeped into her ageing brain.  Why are some of these unfit people so readily appointed to the Senate?

SOLUTION: Toxic

PROBLEM: Comment: Seaton you idiot! Dude, how is it possible to be THAT stupid? Now I understand that cuts have to be made. But what is it that you see in the mirror that make's you think you're more important than our schools? Look buddy, I know appearances aren't everything. But that does not mean they don't have value. Do you not know that you now look like a horse's ass? Honestly, stupid may not be a strong enough word to describe what you're doing.

SOLUTION:
Toxic
