I think it's because harassers are from the same 'club', and their victims are not. Their club will often be led by white men, but can be more diverse, because it's mostly about class. The 'Ligue du LOL' in France had a fair number of women, most of them integrated because they slept with Vincent Gad or the other leader I forgot the name of, and were especially nasty with other women who refused to do so (the primary target, despite what the media said, were not 'feminists' but women who refused to sleep with members). They also harassed white men, especially non-Parisian, and were nastier if that person was overweight or on the spectrum. The harassment could go very far, with fake death announcement, and I've heard, physical intrusion (Korben, French tech journalist has a lot more details, I only knew a bit because I'm from a rural area, and accointances tried to take a small part of sunlight before getting absolutely trashed by that Parisian harassment club). It really has nothing to do with minorities: it's just that it's easier to mock them, and harder for them to be in this kind of social class, because imho, it's more a class thing: you want to put down people before they can get opportunities to get to your level.
