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: It's called "Throw the rascals out!" There is no way that the current crop of vipers which includes the Democratic presidential candidate can be counted on to implement any meaningful change...they are crooks to a man (or woman) and all have their entrenched fiefdoms staked out. Start at the top. As I recall from fading history lessons, the Constitution and the federal government were created well after the Revolution so while there may have been "ideas" of what was wanted or expected, there was little consensus about the final shape. They knew what they didn't want (which is what we have now). As far as misogynism, the media's blind eye for Mrs. Clinton's defense of a rapist and her more recent blind eye to Bill's pecadillos, consensual or otherwise, says it all. Donald has run his mouth but Bill and by extension, his enabler, have run quite another anatomical part. Have any of us never uttered anything that we were deeply embarassed about later?
