Teacher: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.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: Comment: I am not a Republican. I belong to no party and I dislike partisan matters of all kinds. When considering any issue, I do it from my own personal perspective and not that of a party. I think it is foolish for the people of this nation to fixate on Trump the person and the BS nonsense regarding contact with Russia, etc. The Pres should be a good friend of powerful leaders around the world. It is good for America's interests. IMHO Russia will yield more for a friend than an enemy. I would love to see the discussion move toward optimal health care, taxes, appropriate wealth distribution, value of trade vs protectionism, etc. But the libber won't touch any serious issue facing Americans, they labor every day to focus on Trump the person which is just not important at all.
