sanctioned, endorsed The second half of this sentence tells you that reports of corporal punishment receive an “overwhelmingly negative popular response.” This means that the military would be unlikely to authorizethese forms of abuse. Upbraided (criticized), considered, rejected, and polarized (broken up into separate groups) have no relationship.
