Hero, villain and Victim: Dissecting harmful memes for Semantic role labelling of entities: Given a meme and an entity, determine the role* of the entity in the meme: hero vs. villain vs. victim vs. other.
*The meme is to be analyzed from the perspective of the author of the meme.
Definition of the entity classes
Hero:
The entity is presented in a positive light
Glorified for their actions conveyed via the meme or gathered from background context
Villain:
The entity is portrayed negatively, e.g., in an association with adverse traits like wickedness, cruelty, hypocrisy, etc.
Victim:
The entity is portrayed as suffering the negative impact of someone else’s actions or conveyed implicitly within the meme.
Other:
The entity is not a hero, a villain, or a victim.
