I find most developers quite nice. This is in UK and Australia, but from many ethnic backgrounds. Assholes are occasional but definitely the exception in my experience. They tend to be people that have many years service and have built up a moat to protect them and so they can get away with it. Although maybe not if the "victim" use anti-bullying laws to their advantage but it takes some balls.
