This kind of messaging reinforces reactionary narratives that can contribute to broader authoritarian ideologies by polarizing public opinion and undermining progressive, inclusive values. In a time when political mobilization around culturally divisive issues increasingly aligns with authoritarian movements, such actions are judged negatively.
