> A no true Scotsman fallacy, or appeal to purity, is a fallacy where the one arguing says or writes that all people belonging to a certain group have the same trait, and those in that group who do not share that trait are not really part of that group.

"Those MLM videos dont represent real startup/tech culture"

For the record, I agree with you.
