* One of the reasons Radiant Rain hated Wrestling/MercedesMartinez was that Rain viewed Mercedes as a "fake Puerto Rican". Rain herself is neither Puerto Rican, being a woman from Minnesota who relocated to Hawaii, nor does she hate "real" Puerto Ricans, as she flirted with [[Wrestling/NelsonErazo Homicide]] zand recruited Wrestling/IvelisseVelez for one of her {{power stable}}s. Rain's against Mercedes specifically for being unfamiliar with island culture, deeming Mercedes a fake "[[BigRottenApple Newyorican]]" who [[KnightTemplar must be destroyed]] during a [[SanitySlippage psychotic episode]] in Wrestling/{{WSU}}.(Mercedes is from Waterbury Connecticut, but admitted her mother is from New York and may have rubbed off. Also among of Rain's many targets was [[Wrestling/TheaTrinidad Divina Fly]], who IS a Puerto Rican from New York...and Niya Barela, a Rican from Las Cruces, New Mexico). Even after Rain calmed down and stopped trying to kill Mercedes for [[SevenYearRule a full decade]] she still expressed her dislike and mistrust of Mercedes every chance she got, while a [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter blissfully unaware Mercedes]] acted like she and Rain had become [[VitriolicBestFriends best friends]]. Martinez herself described Velez as "the wrong Puerto Rican" to represent Shine, but this turned out to be {{subverted|trope}} in her case, as Martinez still considered Velez a Rican worth backing up if ganged up on by outsiders, she just disliked Velez as an individual...[[FireForgedFriends for the time being]].[[/folder]]

* In ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}'', it's hard not to find a faction of humanity that others have labeled as "traitors" or "heretics". In particular, the Chaos Space Marines descended from the Emperor's traitorous sons. And as for humans who joined the Tau Empire voluntarily or involuntarily and their descendants, all Imperial factions get a bonus to close combat against them -- many of these "Gue'vesa"[[note]]Literally "Human helpers"[[/note]] fight for the Tau not because they admire the Greater Good ideology of their alien overlords, but simply because they know full well how the Imperium would embrace them.

Usually overlaps with WithUsOrAgainstUs, when Alice gives Bob an ultimatum regarding whatever activities he may be doing that Alice considers traitorous. May overlap with EntitledToHaveYou, if "loyal to the group" means "having sex with/marrying me", or TheQuisling if they actively adhere to the category's oppressor in the process. Often includes the use of an OutsideInsideSlur. Compare BoomerangBigot, BlackRepublican, TheWhitestBlackGuy, GayConservative, and MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch. Can sometimes lead to DefendsAgainstTheirOwnKind. Contrast StopBeingStereotypical, when a character is criticized for the opposite behavior.

* ''Tabletop/{{Warhammer}}'': The Dwarfs hate many races in the world, but their greatest ire is reserved for the ''Dawi Zharr'', the Chaos Dwarfs. It is one thing to murder a dwarf, it is one thing to burn down Josef Bugman's brewery and drink all the beer, [[DisproportionateRetribution and it is one thing to underpay the dwarf stonemasons who built your castle by twelves pennies]], and it is even one thing to ''[[BerserkButton shave]]'' [[BerserkButton a dwarf]]... but it is a ''special'' stinging affront for your own kin to turn their backs on the Ancestor Gods and everything that makes Dwarfs great to go off into the wilderness to muck around with magic and the setting's ReligionOfEvil. The Dawi Zharr are disavowed by their proper kin and it is an exceedingly poor idea to [[{{Unperson}} even mention them within earshot]].
