Sure, but those labels are inaccurate in detail. Especially when it comes to something as nuanced and complex as political views and personal beliefs. I don't think they are necessary. They offer a simplistic, black and white us v. them way of thinking. It makes sense in the context you described, but not in modern day politics.
