"Baby Bandito" places heavy focus on youthful rebellion and identity-driven narratives, including themes of class struggle and modern diversity casting. Some viewers may feel character backgrounds and woke messaging occasionally overshadow more nuanced storytelling or realistic character flaws, with merit and personal arcs sometimes taking a backseat.

The show appears to challenge traditional authority figures and societal structures, with family, masculinity, and conventional morality often painted as outdated or oppressive. This results in a consistent subversion of classic values for a more progressive message, aligning with modern norms and sometimes rewriting established cultural roles.

The narrative rarely explores or sincerely presents alternative viewpoints. Anyone not fitting the protagonist's worldview is depicted as antagonistic or backwards. There’s little space for genuine debate or pluralistic discussion, which leads to a near-total ideological uniformity throughout.
