The properties of a member of a set is not indicative of the entire set. Having ideological sacred cows is convenient for people who wish to discredit a section of the population, one that is underrepresented. You just identify one violator, and you can use the emotional reaction it invokes to carry forward that designation to the whole "problematic" group.
