What does the word 绑架 mean in these contexts? (not "kidnap") For example here are a couple of topic titles from 知乎:

如何看待道德绑架行为？
我不想让我的女儿继续经历现在的「审美绑架」

And a comment I found on a youtube video:

现在的共产党使用的统治方式和封建时代的中国没什么两样，就是用国家主义绑架中国老百姓。按理说，其他的民族也没那么容易被统治者绑架，但中国老百姓偏偏容易被绑架，因为从一开始就被绑架了，一直没有明白过来。

Obviously in these sentences it does not mean "kidnap". So what does it mean? How can I translate it, and how do I use it?

Thanks in advance.
