"chwyddo" in context

Ac rwy'n credu ei bod yn bwysig ailddatgan hyn, oherwydd mae'r ddadl ynghylch ffermio mewn lle gwael; mae wedi cael ei llusgo i mewn i'r rhyfeloedd diwylliant, ac mae'r rhaniadau hynny'n cael eu chwyddo trwy ein dadleuon gwleidyddol.

And I think it’s important to restate this, because the debate around farming is in a bad place; it’s become dragged into the culture wars, and those divisions are heightened through our political debate.
