Do the rich upper class count as Aristocrats for this trope?
The most egregious example are the "Evil Rich Dudes" who torture for fun (Hostel).
I'd hesitate to place it on Corrupt Corporate Executive as their antics aren't tied to where they work, but on them being upper class.

The key difference is that Aristocrats aren't just rich, they're part of a hereditary upper class. They're "better than you" simply because of their DNA and aren't shy about saying so.
