This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
You've moved the goalposts. Originally you said that it was okay because the targeted group is privileged, and now you're saying it's okay because they're the majority demographic for a specific crime. My response is the same either way though. It's wrong because it perpetuates harmful stereotypes against an entire group of people, rather than treating them as individuals like everyone deserves to be treated. Harmful stereotypes influence everything from common perception, all the way up to things like custodial preference in custody cases between two parents, regardless of the qualifications or behavior of the parents, or spousal abuse when the victim is a male. Substitute "men" for any other group and see how your majority demographic argument feels.
