I was going to say this exactly.

I would also group in "mis/disinformation" because it's such a clumsy phrase and people will often say both making it an even larger often-repeated verbal monstrosity.

It's interesting because, for me at least, there's an aesthetic quality to these phrases that is unmistakable.

A subset of passive aggressiveness or crybullying perhaps as an excuse to employ stonewalling, one of the 4 horsemen of the relationship apocalypse. It's even more corrosive when combined with a social group pattern of continually excommunicating the latest "impure" or "nonbeliever."

Good counterpoint.
