In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: identity-attack and non-identity-attack. Identity attack refers to anything rude or disrespectful about someone's identity, including appearance, race, gender, and sexual orientation.

[EX Q]: Comment: I can already name the homophobic commenters who will quickly make the leap from this one [alleged] rapist to all gay men, as though they would similarly indict all straight men because some men rape women.
[EX A]: Identity-attack

[EX Q]: Comment: I am reminded of Martin Luther King's "Letter From A Birmingham Jail". I am particularly reminded of this paragraph:

We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed. Frankly, I have yet to engage in a direct action campaign that was "well timed" in the view of those who have not suffered unduly from the disease of segregation. For years now I have heard the word "Wait!" It rings in the ear of every Negro with piercing familiarity. This "Wait" has almost always meant "Never." We must come to see, with one of our distinguished jurists, that "justice too long delayed is justice denied."

Substitute "homosexual" for "Negro", and it rings true in this situation.
[EX A]: Identity-attack

[EX Q]: Comment: Wow. Two complete fairy tales. Harper accomplished nothing but a lot of corruption--including election fixing--and sinking Canada $160 billion further in debt.
The $90,000 was a bribe to keep Duffy quiet.
Maybe Tubby Harper was more like the Airbus affair PM. Complete sleaze.
[EX A]:
Non-identity-attack
