** Even WW is NotSoAboveItAll sometimes; a particularly infamous example is an incident where she is confronted by an angry mob, the leader of which is an angry heavyset man holding an effigy of her, calling her out for her callous behavior towards the collateral damage supers like her can inflict. Wonder Woman's response? Rope the man with her Lasso of Truth so that he spills about secretly being a crossdresser, ''publicly humiliating him'' and causing the crowd to disperse. While the man was using some rather crass language to describe WW, his point about her carelessness towards innocents [[JerkassHasAPoint was nonetheless valid]] but Wonder Woman is depicted as being in the right.

* ''Webcomic/TheStrongestFlorist'': The elves in the New World game are naturally distrustful of outsiders, and consider themselves the guardians of the forest against humans. Attempts to deceive, intimidate or even just socialize with them are quickly met with lethal force thanks to their incredible martial arts and magic.

* ''WebOriginal/ElfslayerChronicles'' is about a D&D campaign taking place in a homebrew setting where the elves are portrayed as perfect in every way and are constantly looking down upon humans for being xenophobic homophobes. The player, being fed up about how the setting is merely meant to indulge the DM's love of gay elves as well as this very trope, decides to play his character as a xenophobic homophobe by assassinating his kingdom's prince and instigating a war between humans and elves.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Manga/DeliciousInDungeon'': The "long-lived" races (elves, dwarves, and gnomes) treat the "shorter-lived" races exploring a dungeon like children playing with explosives and are quick to run in and seal off dungeons that have progressed to a certain point. We gradually learn more about how much of a problem this mindset is to the "shorter-lived": Tallmen captured by elves will essentially die of old age in jail because the elves don't think 60 years is that long of a time to wait before questioning, and most of the world's fertile lands are occupied by "long-lived" races, leaving everyone else to fight over the scraps.
