It isn’t, though. If the defining feature of a classification is ideological rather than ethnicity based, it isn’t a fallacy to exclude people from that label for failing to conform to that ideology. Once can call themselves something without being it, and doing so shouldn’t cast aspersion on the people who are in fact as well as name.

The problem isn’t the “No True Scotsman”, it is that there isn’t an objective definition of Conservative. But I support throwing out, even post-humously, people who act contrarily to the rule of law and respect for life as Mandy described.

And does the same thing apply to liberals, or is it just conservatives who are by definition good, law abiding people?
