I understand the sentence completely, but I don't get why denounce and dismiss are a pair. Thought dismiss and ignore are closer

What are the key points here to find out the blank should be negative. Why are positive words like Commend and Extol wrong.

It can be also understood like it can be wrong to praise the esoteric strains.
