It's white washing.
Your chatgpt comment explaining the white washing theory is embarrassing, you should just delete both comments lol.
White washing means washing (aka painting) your house with a chalk wash. It covers up the dirt and makes the wall look all clean again. In this sense it's also used figuratively.
Not washing your skin white or whatever.
rAcIaLLy DiVEr-fucking white and black audience. There.
