I feel this advert is controversial on PURPOSE! It is designed to annoy a percentage of the population and get them talking. It will then be further raised on the news and on social media.

Adverts like these ultimately get people talking and raise awareness.

And then hopefully make the issue better, but maybe just further bifurcate the population and contribute to more tribalism, followed by people deciding to elect a shitty president in order to troll people they don’t like.
