It might be even more effective if it were given a more general meaning - "to deliberately sabotage something as a reinforcement of one's own prejudices." That could result in more widespread usage and adoption. Wouldn't it be gratifying to see Car and Driver write something like "When Consumer Reports tested a BMW last month, they brodered it"?
