  That's what you'd hope for, but in practice that's not what I'm seeing.

  Eh, I think it's a decent label. Individuals belonging to a social group with a presumption of power (in many western contexts, white men) tend to behave as described above. Individuals belonging to groups with low presumptions of power just tend to be problematic within their own community. You don't see many long lasting violent weak minority supremacy groups.
