Part 1. Definition
In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: obscene and non-obscene. A comment is obscene if it is considered offensive to the public sense of decency, for example because it too obviously relates to sex or contains language regarded as taboo in polite usage.
Part 2. Example
Comment: Damn! Another cloudy day, and it's all Obama's doing!
Answer: Obscene
Explanation: This is obscenity because it hints on sexual content that is offensive to the public sense of decency.
Part 3. Exercise
Comment: When Senator Collins asked Comey, "did you show copies of your memos to anyone outside the Department of Justice?" Comey had to answer as he was under oath. Had the question not been asked, Comey would have never volunteered that information. He was a lyin, leaker and wouldn't want to reveal that to the world. What a hypocrite going around saying what a terrible thing these leaks are. After he was caught he claims he had to get it out to "the public square" because of Trump's alleged tapes. Like he was doing the public a favor. And he also said, he wanted the memo to generate the appointment of a special prosecutor. Again trying to make himself out to be a hero.
You're just a Lyin, Leakin, Dimwit Comey. Lock him and his buddies at the FBI Up!
Answer:
Non-obscene
