In worlds where leaders X of some social movement condemn taboo action Y you would expect to see X condemning Y. But also in worlds where X supports Y, you would expect them to not be able to publicly state that they support Y, and so in these worlds too, you would expect X to condemn Y. But this creates a problem. If condemning Y is what X does in both worlds where they support and condemn Y, how can X actually communicate with supporters who find themselves wondering if they can support the movement with Y. Do sufficiently strong taboos against Y make it impossible to actually communicate true condemnation clearly? That would suck.

False condemnation: “Yes, of course Y is a bad thing, although it’s quite understandable how people may feel driven to do it.”
