the thing about being a morphology fan and having a mom in activist circles is that I might have just accidentally invented a term for autistic pinkwashing and now it's being circulated on autism support groups on facebook by my mom
#like shes explaining the term to people who have podcasts on autism in this country#and I mean I do think it conveys its meaning very smoothly and is absolutely relevant for the specific conversation at play#(conversation being “tv network airing new show where people are autistic on screen!” and how that can either be good or. not good)#and my mom asked me for a term thats “selling things on the prospect of autism awareness” and I went “like pinkwashing?” and well#specifically chose to title it bluewashing bc. yknow. thats not the correct color if you actually ask autistic activists?#unfortunately every single color-washing is also supposedly taken#still dont get why according to wikipedia bluewashing is pretending to be a democrat company. with 0 sources on the article#also no offense but thats so american like thats so 2 parties of yall over here theres like 50 parties so blue is just. a color
