TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you are given a public comment from online platforms. You are expected to classify the comment into two classes: insult and non-insult. Insult is any lanugage or act that is disrespectful or scornfully abusive.
PROBLEM: Comment: Ross is a bully, just like his boss.

He is engaging in a war of words in the hopes of convincing Canada and Mexico to give in quickly when negotiations start. Unfortunately for him he has tipped his hand. He does not just want a quick deal, he NEEDS a quick deal.

The best thing we can do now is not agree to his timetable. No deal by the end of the year.

I personally do not see how we could get to a deal by the end of the year anyway. The terms Ross will offer us will likely be so oppressive that no Canadian politician could accept them without losing their seat and their party's standing in the next election. The same goes for Mexico.

Negotiations will be protracted unless Ross caves, something he seems disinclined to do. I am not in favor of giving him the semblence of a deal as a face saving jesture. The guy is jerk.

We had better get ready for a post NAFTA world, just in case.

SOLUTION: Insult

PROBLEM: Comment: A gay relationship - the safest place for a man to be - literally!

SOLUTION: Non-insult

PROBLEM: Comment: I liked the article. Gerson does a good job of seeing some of the problems with authoritarian regimes, they don't work well in the long run. There's clearly a point in weak or failing government that makes room for a strong armed leader that promises they can fix things if they just trust in them. It sells, the frustration with indecision slows. But in the long run, the price for calm, become stifling censorship, reduced creativity, less innovation and eventually, well, Korea.

It's important to know how leadership styles can effect human behaviors. Gerson is pointing out 'central control' does not embrace the creative energy of a more open society.

A voice against authoritarian control, and support for functional alliances that discourage suppression and encourages cooperation, what's not to like?

SOLUTION:
Non-insult
