This is propaganda because
This is an example of Active emotion and attack opponents in Propaganda because it pushes that if you don't agree with giving aid to Ukraine, then you support Russia and what they stand for. It evokes emotions in you, whether you agree with the comment or not. For example, people who don't want to give aid to Ukraine might feel offended that people view them as supporting Putin.
This is trying to influence public behavior by pushing people to support aid in Ukraine, or be looked down upon by their fellow democratic americans.
I believe it is harmful because it pushes people further away from each other than bringing people together.
