The Itachi comparison isn't exactly fair I feel.
Itachi was, initially, portrayed as a mass-murdering monster who was responsible for Sasuke being as psychologically damaged as he was. There was criticism of his actions inherent to that interpretation in the story.
The problem came later when he it was revealed that he was forced to commit said mass-murder under duress by the government, did so, then became a terrorist to try and stop the terrorism and also reform the government from the outside and... traumatised his brother to... protect him? Buh?!
While many parts of Naruto are well written and thought out, Itachi and his motivations were not. There's an audible and palpable narrative clunk as Kishimoto tries to shift tacks from "Itachi is a big old villain who murdered people to test his own strength or whatever and that's bad," to "Itachi was a gentle soul who murdered his entire family/clan in order to kill off an impending coup d'etat fuelled by a combination of systemic prejudice and a mass genetic predisposition towards poor mental health, and this is... good.. apparently?"
Even under the best of circumstances, the second is a really hard thing to land as a narrative beat and Kishimoto did not frame this complex position well enough to land it at all.
Bakugou is more a product of lazy writing.
At least a cinder block isn't a sex pestNah, that was The Dog.
I actually argued that Mineta's quirk is somewhat more useful than a simple cinder block.
